Default universal bass ****

Can you get a universal bass **** with any amp. I just put a 1200watt kenwood amp pushing a single alpine sype S sub in my truck, problem is the amp has no bass **** which would really come in handy. Dont they just plug right into the amp and your good to go? or am I way off

I don't believe there is such a thing as a "universal" ****, as I've had a few different amplifiers in my history and they've all differed as far as plug size/shape is concerned. Does your amplifier have a hole/port to receive a bass **** in the first place?

They have universal gain / level *****, that go inline on the input RCA.

Here's a list:

I have used alot "gain" *****. But the only one that worked for me was the http://www.sonicelectronix.com/item_5260_PAC-LC1.html PAC LC1. A very great universal line adjustment device. Works great and very easy to hook up.

X2 no problems with mine. It's like a inline control for RCA

Get a PAC lc-1, most bang for the buck, gain ***** will get you in trouble, the lc-1 will run your RCA signal through it controlling how much input your amp gets, use double sided 3m tape to hold it on the dash, good luck

I think this is what I need... Sometimes I want more bass, other times, I just want it turned down. It's a hassle trying to do it with the HU.
