oh **** i predrilled the holes and screwed the sub into the drilled holes.. now wat do i do?


and i didnt know how to setup the amp so i jsut put the ***** to:

**** 1: 3 (half way)
**** 2: 0 (at the lowest setting)
switch: 80Hz
Gain: half way


at these settings.. it sounds good, lots of bass SQ is also good


if the settings are wrong and i can get more bass or the settings are bad for the sub or amp please tell me.

i just never seen that done. wouldnt u want the screw be as tight as possible? if u predrill a hole for it wouldnt it be loose and become more loose over time?

if u were to use those T-screws or whatever they are called then yah u would pre drill but if u use regular 8x1.5 wood screws wouldnt predrilling kinda defeat the purpuse? am I clear on what im saying? maybe we just missunderstand the 'predrill' term?

to my understading u want the screw to make its own hole for best/tightest grab. i even rotate the subs every time i take them out and put them back in so i dont use the old holes.

Love it.

Thanks alot for all of your help.

this is a system that has finally satisfied me.
my friend thinks its too much bass, but i think its good enough. a little more wouldnt hurt but i dont really need more.
