You need cleaner power to the subwoofer. Just because the amp says that it's 300 watts doesn't mean that it's actually producing this power. Get yourself a more reputable amplifier and your bass problems will disappear. As well, what are you using for an enclosure ? Homemade out of MDF or a prefabbed box ? Make sure that the enclosure is the right size for the sub otherwise it doesn't matter how much your giving the sub... it will sound like crap.
