Sub A/V question

ecswookie · 02-05-2006, 02:01 AM

Ok I have a SB live USB card which works great btw and it has a sub channel which is also the center channel. The problem Im haveing and this might not be a huge problem seeing how my subs dont hit for **** is its split one red one white, red is sub white is centre. I bridged my amp so I have to have a set of A/Vs plugged into its input and two plugged into the output of the card but I only have room for one A or V. Does this make sense? Anyways the subs are not hitting for beans and when I say that I mean I can barely tell there on. Plz help thanks

assuming you have no problems with your amp/subs. Try switching your rca's. you may have gotten your sub/center channel mixed up. How do you know that red is sub and white is center.

Center channel shouldn't have "lows" on it. If you have you center rca pluged in to your amp, and you have your amp on low crossover. Then you will have very little sound coming from you sub. tmk

Your sub should be mono you only need one rca for this. Is your amp capable running bridged?

Is your amp set right, try turing up your gain. It's not a volume control.

good luck.

The gains are turned to roughly 75%. The only problem I might have is the LP and HP might be switched which I guess would make sense. I took the amp and the subs out of my car and plugged them into a buddies trunk which I also did and they pounded. So I know the equiptment works fine. Soo that leaves human error haha. And yes it has a bridged function on it for sure. Ahh im gonna die

Are you sure that red is sub and white is center? Did you try switching those? I had the same problem with my setup initially. I found that in my software, subwoofer out was not enabled. After enabling it, the subs hit, but I could barely hear them....I then turned my gains down and they were back to normal.
