Does the basswork amp mean that only the bass signal is going to the rears then?
That might explain my problem as I 'have' to have the fader biased to the rear (14 yr old daughter wants a higher volume than us old foggies in the front) |
Would really have to take a look at the 'bassworks' amp, but essentially I guess it is sending only lower frequency sound to the rear speakers. This means that the speakers, if chosen correctly, will give a lower bass response, without 'struggling' to play the higher frequencies as well.
From reading earlier posts, it seems that the extra amp had 'some' adjustment, but not sure what for - academic, as it is not easily accessible anyway. But, bear in mind that the numpty who fitted it probably just set any adjustments to a random position and left it. What would ideally happen is to play a cd with set frequencies on it and then tune the amp, for both gain and frequency cut-off(if possible). This is very personal to your ear, and also to the type of music you listen to.
If I had the system I would try and gain access to the bassworks amp, and move it somewhere that is easily accessibly - glovebox, under a passenger seat etc. You could then tinker with any adjustments to suit.
Just a thought really, but as POTTSY says, you will only really get true bass by 'shifting' air - something a set of speakers in a rear door are not really going to achieve.
