Default No low end bass

Hi, after installing 2 12" jl w3 I seem to only be catching mid bass. There is no low bass. There are two sets of wires for front subs and then a set for my non ml sub. They are the same colors!!! I thought maybe I had them mixed up but when switched I get no bass at all. I'm using the scoche LOC. an 1800 watt kenwood amp.
I've had a hard time getting any info on the wiring, everyone seems to have three or four plugs behind the amp and I only have 2!
The car is a 2006 gs300.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!!!!!!!!
Thank you in advance!!!!!!


The wires I've used are Green, blue,pink, and purple

that has nothing to do with it. The reason why you're not getting low end bass is because your subwoofer's box is not built to spec for a lower Hz setting, do a little research on that (outside of CL) and you'll see what i mean, if you want low end bass, you'll want to invest in a ported box. That way it's tunable and you can hit low enough notes to vibrate your backseat. Also note that every subwoofer has a optimal range for it. All in all i'd hit up a really reputable audio shop to help you through the whole process.

Also check the settings on your amp and make sure that your amp can pick up the low bass frequency.
