I got a 12" subwoofer that packs a punch, but I don't know where to set my lpf for most benefit. Head unit goes from 50-200hz Amp 40-240hz You got any recommendations
Pick one, either will do fine. I'd pick the headunit cause you can see exactly where your at , not so much on most amps. But it's up to you Lpf 80hz on head unit or amp is the same thing but just pick one to set it on
Read the manual for your subwoofer it usually says what to set your lpf my Deaf Bounce 10in Fight S suggests I put my lpf filter at 63-80hz and subsonic to -5hz of my port of my box. So if my subwoofer box port is tuned to 37hz I put my subsonic at 32hz
You can do either as long as one of them is completely maxed out or "off". Personally the one with the most adjustability and better internal components(usually the amp) is the one to use.
lol I use the amp crossover because the headunit can default to full frequency sometimes to due dead battery or car services requiring disconnecting battery terminals
yeah your definitely a noob at car audio cause you don’t do that quit giving wrong info out to others you set either the settings on the radio or if not the amp don’t set lpf on both your just fucking with the frequency
No.. One or the other.. if you understand crossover slopes you would know why this is a bad idea. Headunit is easier/quicker to adjust, but amp controls give you more precision (assuming you have the tools to set em right)
you DONT wanna use both because you’re adding together the roll-off db by using both 🤦♂️ if you educate yourself on how banding/octaves and crossover works then you’d know that. Before spreading wrong info on youtube comments do your homework
I set mine on my headunit I have a taramps smart 3 the lpf only goes down to 90hz on this amp so I set it on my headunit instead. Any questions feel free to ask always
I think putting it as close to the sub as possible would filter out any high frequency noise the signal picked up along the wire
is it the same way to turn LPF all the way up on HU, if theres no off features, and set the xover on amplifier.....

Most sub amps have built in low pass filter.
So what I do is set my x over freq all the way up and then set it on my head unit?

Would it be the same for subsonic/hp filter
Sub sonic id set at 20-25 hz
It's to protect your sub from trying to play too low
subsonic should be tuned to your enclosures hz frequency to avoid damaging your sub
You want to set the radio and amp at the same setting
Right ion no what he taking about

@@theblinkstykrab3106your right these dudes don’t what they talking about,only one filter.

What do you do? Head unit or amp?

@@Julian_Solis hey
Idk about LPF or HPF what does it do?
LPF is the low pass filter for your subs... HPF is the high pass filter if you are running your mid and highs off the amp
@@ICT_Antonwhat should the hpf be on a mids nd highs amp?
@@EsePlebeJoseeif using the HU for HPF x-over, you do the opposite of LPF. So you turn your HPF all the way down, then use the HU HPF x-over.
