It sounded mint in my last car running off an alpine deck in conjunction with an alpine minidisk. I don't get the low freq. that the subs are used for anymore.

Mine is able to go much louder than stock, so it is much better.... but not comparable to running off a deck that's all. I can't complain because this cost me almost nothing to do and is quick, so you get what you pay for in the end!!!

I think I'll end up doing this myself, Ive been running subs and a speaker amp for ages just off the ipod, the last piece of the puzzle will be getting a good signal from the stock head unit. I've got a low levl converter but it sounds like sh!t.

Am I reading this right?Which means I can go around this amp altogether and install my own amp to run the sub only? Also then all the other speakers are receiving full-range signal fom the ICC or he ICC is doing the filtering itself.Thoughts or comments?Pat Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/31547-new-amp-and-sub-with-premo-sound/page/2/#findComment-484127 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I run a 12 inch sub and an amp in my F6, the amp has the hi input option so I just disconnected the wires from the factory sub, and ran them to the new amp. I didnt use the low-pass filter as the signal is already set on low-pass.it makes everything vibrate, but I still think it could be better. will investigate bypassing the amp tomorrow.MaccA Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/31547-new-amp-and-sub-with-premo-sound/page/2/#findComment-488681 Share on other sites More sharing options...
