No not at 100 hz but always start at 80 hz and turn of bass boost to 0 at 12 db your putting distortion already that sub will be fried very soon. JL audio installer technician certified. 🙄🤦🤷
Cheers guys, another great video. A couple of things that may help you, cut the bass boost out completely, it only adds distortion and clipping to the signal. The amplifier gain should be matched to the output voltage of the head unit, usually 1/2 way or less. The crossover you can play with but I would avoid anything higher than 100hz. Once you have all the other settngs dialled, you can go back and add A LITTLE bass boost(no more than +3cd). Bass boost circuits act like a port in sealed boxes where you can "tune" your sealed box to a specific frequency. Also make sure you have a good ground. It will eliminate the feedback from your ignition. Keep up the great work. BTW I have 2 Skar amps and some speakers, for the money they have decent equipment. I am more than happy with my setup.
Haha thank you so much for your advice and comment , we will do so and be better every time :) skar is overall a really great brand we will forsure get some skar audio systems to put them to the test ! 😁
I agree o never use any other amp controls... I keep all of them on 0 and use only as much gain as sounds without distortion using only amp gain under full volume . all receiver controls at 0 as well no loud boost either. no bass boost allowed.
By the way, the remote knobs don't adjust the bass boost they just reduce the gain. So 100% of the knob is whatever the gain setting is on the amplifier, 50% is 50% of your gain setting, etc
Haha 😁 thank you so much for the support we do our best to make enjoyable videos for everyone to enjoy , if there’s anything that we can do to be better please let us know as we do take advice and info :)

I bought a set of pyramid the original wx65 drivers to install in the door on my 86 Chevy k20 custom deluxe, but I ended up getting rid of it and swapped out the speakers on the sondpex full stereo sound bass reflex box and honestly with no amp running off a Sony xplod cdx L600 45x4 and the front speakers are the only ones working pioneer tsg4544 4x6 speakers truck is a early 94 Chevy Silverado extended cab short bed Z71, and honestly it hits fairly decent only running deck power.pyramid the original wx65 drivers were $15 and free shipping from ebay and the sondpex full stereo sound bass reflex box was $46 half discount like 30 percent off from AutoZone because I am a member of the AutoZone rewards program and the online subscription
The ones from about 4 years ago were better and the ones from around 2009 hit hard in the right box for dual electronics products. The kicker amplified sub box probably does really well in a durability test ... I've had several dual electronics products. I also have a house stereo receiver with a Pyle pbq 10 bandpass box and it has a boss audio chaos cxx10 sub and it pounds!!
I bought mine a couple months ago, it's torn down in my living room now. No sound from the speaker when wired up. However the lights still flash with the signal. I have to put a meter to it, but I'm betting the Amp is shot. The speaker is good to go! Haha
Gain ALL THE way up, Bass Boost ALL THE WAY DOWN !!! LPF meh a smidge.. you control your bass from head unit ! bass boost to the max equals quick blowing of the amp
Its just physics. You need space for subs to create that "feel" you're looking for. A tiny 8 in a tiny box stuffed with an amp will do no justice. Even under a seat.
Much Appreciated :) we do our best to tune, instead of turning everything up to max like we used to as we found out very quickly, its not the best thing to do
How about trying them out with the proper application and then giving your opinions? It makes absolutely no sense to put it in the trunk if it's meant for under the seat. If it sounds better under the seat or worse at least then you can give a proper review
Got it all installed today. Took a couple hours. I’m very pleased with it. Strong clean bass, it doesn’t shake my rearview mirror but you can def feel it. I put it in an ext cab 2000 Silverado. You guys should really review this product for folks looking for a good hideaway sub. It’s worth every penny of the $95. Btw I’m running a kenwood kdc200u head unit at 200 watts per channel with stock speakers soon to be replaced with all Sony 6.5” and 4x6”…
You had one of these and it only lasted 3 weeks? I only have a cheap stock head unit in my 06 mustang and was thinking about putting one under each seat. We're you like really pushing or abusing it for it to fail at 3 weeks? Or it just crap?
@@nimrodpaul6875 it’s Walmart so I honestly don’t expect things to last long… and I started off w everything off and adjusted it accordingly but within a couple weeks of having it just went to fault … works well and does the job when it works but I think it’s just bottom of the barrel stuff… wouldn’t say it’s crap cause it worked really well for the time being… it could honestly be something minimal but haven’t looked into it to much just cause it’s Walmart product
That sub isn’t for 4 door or coupe with seal hatchback, it’s only for hatchback trucks and 2 door trucks under sets or 2 door keep wranglers or even mini coopers and small truck or small cars with open hatchback will work. 🙄🤦🤔
Set the lp around 100hz and turn the bass boost off for starters.
U prolly have to run bass boost with this unit being very low output
No not at 100 hz but always start at 80 hz and turn of bass boost to 0 at 12 db your putting distortion already that sub will be fried very soon. JL audio installer technician certified. 🙄🤦🤷

Those are made for under the seat. It's not going to do much out like that. That's not a bass boost control, it's a remote gain control.
That's what I was thinking

That would work for country music in my single cab Chevy. My speakers have absolutely no bass lol
Bass knob actually reduces the gain for your bass unplug it you’ll get more out it
No it doesn't.
Me n my homie after installing our first subs
Turn the low pass up, 50, 60, 70 is to low for that sub, treat it as a mid-bass woofer for best results
I'm shocked that it actually sounds pretty damm decent you guys should set it to 150hz
Don't expect that sub to last Walmart subs usually blow up quick & not handle wattage to well.
We are doing a durability test on the duals 😁 we’ll see how long they last us !
Depends how you run them

I got four of the gothic 12s from Walmart that lasted and still work to this day and bought them 2 years ago
So out of this speaker do you get voice and bass or just bass like a actual sub
We honestly heard both ! regardless you can adjust it to where its mostly voice or bass Or both !
@@TNG11Automotive Dope I've been seeing these nice review I'm having a wild idea or replacing my 6x9s with two of those 🤣
You Should make a video about it !! im pretty sure some people will be curious enough 😁
5:50 “ Iiis iT iN sIdE??
Great review 👍👍 Nice LGB Lights 🤣
Which wires did u use
Wich one sound better that one or the dual one?
In our opinion the dual without a doubt!
Don't forget to use these as underseats with 2 square 16s in the trunk.
Mount it on the back of the back seats maybe it will help
Do you think you can run 2 of these together?
We can definitely make that possible:)
what if you added 2 of them under a seat might be better
Absolutely right! 😁
Gain ALL THE way up, Bass Boost ALL THE WAY DOWN !!! LPF meh a smidge.. you control your bass from head unit ! bass boost to the max equals quick blowing of the amp
Gain all the way up introduces clipping....that's how you burn and blow subs

Should smoke a joint while installing, that way your review will will match your installation 😎
Hey one day you'll guys figure out which way to turn each knob but until now it's pretty amusing
Much Appreciated :) we do our best to tune, instead of turning everything up to max like we used to as we found out very quickly, its not the best thing to do
@@TNG11Automotivewould you do an updated video of tuning this unit?
You should play I’m a Real 1 by YG on that
How about trying them out with the proper application and then giving your opinions? It makes absolutely no sense to put it in the trunk if it's meant for under the seat. If it sounds better under the seat or worse at least then you can give a proper review
Can anyone do a video on how to hook this thing up to hi-level inputs?
butt connector them to the head units speaker outputs thats it just use your own wire to reach it
I think its pretty cool
It would work pretty well if it were used at home to augment existing stereo equipment.
Change the fused plus 10 amp, if the fuse is 20 amp you can use 10 more... change for 30 amp and is safe for use..... engineers tricks...
Bass boost introduces distortion
keep your reciept. skar audio got the drip.

Ok 1 you shouldn't use bass boost at all 2 this is for people who want just a little more bass without using up trunk space
Folks, do not ever use bass boost
A sub like that is for underseats and in small areas you can’t fit a big sub
Nada mal 😂😂,Some times Walmart is a good choice 😂

couldnt even get it to power on
Thanks! I'm glad I didn't get that fruity little thing. A pair of Rockville 6.5" 1000w subs in my door will pound that thing out of the water.
It looks like it should be down firing.
Can’t get mine do hit

Turn off the bass boost
bass boost off
Sooooooo. No bueno?
Never use base boost out it at zero
