I guess I'm a proud owner of a bell. but i just cant get the right sound from it. i have a 94 blazer with a panasonic dead head all memphis highs an mids. an they found great, but i cant get my 3 directed 10" to hit deep tones, at first they hit great my friend started playing with my amp an know it sounds OK but not as deep as it was. other than just keep playing with it is there anything I'm not doing my neighbors are very upset with me now Ive played it an played it do no what to do any recommendations would be helpful! thanks

I believe that the Memphis Bell has a variable subsonic filter. If this was turned up it would affect your deep bass. Also check that the Low pass filter (LPF) is set somewhere in the neighborhood of 70HZ
Once you have checked that adjust your sub gain until you get the amount of bass you want. I hope that helps
