lil help with my amp setting

[superxplorer]

hey everyone i did a search on amp settings and did not find what i was looking for.

so i wanna no what amp settings i should set the knobs at. im gonna be installing the amp in the same location as were the factory amp is so i really canty adjust the amp more then one time realy.

the settings i have on my amp witch are probly the same for all amps are

input level, hp adjust, lp adjust, bass adjust, treble adjust, hp/lo/flat select and bass/trebble on/off.

so what should i set me controls at

thanks everyone

i may be able to help a little.. for the input level, turn your stereo up to your average listening level. then turn your input level up untill the speakers distort then crank it down just a bit. correct me if im wrong but you can only use 1 of the hp lp or full settinng at a time? if so id use the lp and set it to where you like it. the lower frequency the less vocals come through. as far as the bass, treble etc i never had them on the amp. id adjust them to how you like it. after saying all that i hope this amp is just running your subs.. hope that helps a little if not theres alot of knowledge here that will jump in. good luck

not really, i could tell you how id do it. but like you said im not the best on it and if its gonna be a one time setting id rather someone else with more experience to help you with it. i would like to see some pics posted as im sure lots others would to when you get it done. seems like a nice setup.

looks very nice. nice hood. if theres anyway to hook it up with mounting it where its a pain in the a!! to get to just temporary id do that till you know you got it the way you need it.

 

[superxplorer]

ya i can probly install it all and then leave the left panel off till i figure out what to do. o ya i got another question tho u might be able to help me with. i wanna run ann new speaker wire but how should i run it to the driver side door. there is some kind of weird plastin thing.

 

[Redrig]

on the inside of the door near the hinges? like a rubber tube?

 

[superxplorer]

its like a plastic tub tho instead. i no the psenger side is rubber.

 

[Redrig]

its probably the same thing except a replacement. it should come out the same way. a flat screwdriver and a little tug.

aight thanks alot for your help. hopefully someone will give me an answer for the amp before i go to work.
