Bass Cuts... - 4/12/2007 1:57:45 AM    YellowStang02   Posts: 22 Joined: 3/5/2005 Status: offline Alright, I have a bit of a problem right now with my stock Mach 460 System. Whenever the bass becomes too much (sometime it's only 3 bars), it sounds like all the bass cuts out for like 5 seconds, than comes back...and it will keep doing this. Anyone have any idea's on the problem and/or a fix. And by fix I don't mean "get a new system" unless of course there is nothing that can be done. Thank you. Post #: 1

RE: Bass Cuts... - 4/12/2007 11:18:29 AM    PReal Posts: 2268 Joined: 8/28/2006 Status: offline I would do the following. This is a good rule of thumb for all stereo if it cuts out on low frequencies. 1. Make sure the speaker wire connections on the speaker are tight. 2. Make sure the connections on the back of the HU/amp are tight. 3. Remove the wire from one speaker and see if it still happens, check both sides. You could have a frayed wire that is shorting out. _____________________________ It needs a little work... (in reply to YellowStang02) Post #: 4
