[QUOTE="John Roberts, post: 51393, member: 126"] Re: Effect of a change in gain to subs? While you didn't mention which cabinets you are using, I wouldn't underestimate the amount of distortion in typical bass loudspeakers, nor how much that influences how they sound. I even suspect one well respected brand that doesn't make as much distortion as everybody else occasionally gets accused of low output because of it's linearity... Our brain often uses distortion as a marker for loudness while with low bass, distortion often just sounds like mo bass because it lands on frequencies we hear louder.... of course YMMV JR [/QUOTE]
