Jensen A600HLX Car Audio Amplifier

Bass boost/Gain


posted by kornkyd007 on Mar 03, 2008


I have a Jensen A600HLX, and I have the high-volume cutoff problem many other people do. I have the bass boost on the amp set to the full +12, and right now because of my weaker subwoofers, I have the gain get to around 4. For maximum output, it is best to have the bass boost set high, or the gain set high with the bass boost lowered?

Forgot to add, I have one 12" 4 ohm subwoofer bridged to the rear channel, set to 2ch mode with LPF. I have all the front channel settings turned down.
I have the same problem.

Both the bass boost and the gain generally do the same thing, except the bass boost is essentially "additional gain" at a particular frequency (in this case, 45Hz). I would suggest lowering the bass boost (10?) and adjust the gain. Honestly, you may have to play around with both settings until you find a happy medium. There is going to be a maximum the amp can provide no matter how you get there. Hope that helps!
