Question About amp/sub
 

I currently have an Dual xpa4640 600W amp with a dual 12" 500W SD12 sub hooked up in my car. The LOC is wired via the wiring diagram from http://www.the12volt.com/installbay/....asp~TID~86090 the amp turns on and the sub kicks a little but can barely hear it. I have tweaked with the dials on the amp and LOC with no luck. Do any of yall have any ideas what I should do to get it to kic hard or will that combination not work correctly? I have the one sub bridged between channel one and channel two.

most LOC's have gain adjustments on them. make sure those are turned up max. then use your amp gain. probably need a tiny #0 phillips screw driver. that's how small mine were.

All of the gains are turned up all the way. Though I found out the RMS of the amp is only 150 and the sub RMS is 175 how big of a difference would that make sound wise?

you'll probably have some bass, but not as much. i had a 300w amp on a 150w sub and it pounded without the gain all the way up. that amp died and i bought a 150w amp thinking it would be perfect for the sub. i had to leave the gain all the way up and it still wasn't as loud as before. so that may be your problem.
