What amp do you have? If you have a JL slash series, they have an option to either have a remote wire or they have signal sensing. I had the 500/1 before and didn't use a remote wire and it would takes a few seconds for the sub to kick. But you can turn that option off and have a remote wire.

I actually found out I was right, it's the ML causing it to take a little bit to kick in. I'm using a Kicker 750.1 not sure what it is exactly LOL. My brother chose it for me.

That's not too bad. Judging by the price I would've gotten a more known brand.

A local company wanted sponsor me (equipment at cost and cheap labor rate) for a ICE but I'm poor. Why did I have to buy a brand new condo... Looks like I'm going to have to do a DIY stereo.

iPhone quality is pretty good!

Dilemma - I have a 12W7 with a 500/1 JL Amp, I hate how I have to listen to the radio at -6 to -4 bass just to be able to hear voices but I hate how the voice sounds like **** when somebody talks, I like the sound bass level at around 4 but I hate the nasty *** bass the sub puts out. I'm a speaker noob, help me out! Should I downgrade?

From what I know Peter, JL stuff is made to knock down walls LOL so your bass is going to be heavy right off the bat. And someone correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't that amp underpowering your sub?

For sure its under powering my sub lol. I got the sub from a trade and the amp was laying around my boys house. I pretty much threw together my setup lol.
