I will try this once I have it back together in a few days. I feel like not setting a HPF at all gives nice deep notes, but high volume there is a horrible "blat" sound so i immediately turn it down. Turn up hpf too high and it sounds like an old radio. Then comes the whole issue of crossover adjusted perfect for windows up quality sound. But windows down loud beats is too strong, or polar opposite where low volume too hollow all around
Trying to get a hang of audio balance since you can never do one without another, and now i don't know if i'm reaching my limit of needing a small sub.... yet. I know I can get the sound I want, but the fine tuning of crossover on hu, to crossover to amp and gain adjustment i find to be very time consuming and a lot of trial and error.
