kicker zx1000.1 bass boost ?

[02xblazer 0]

the kicker zx1000.1 has a 0-18db variable bass boost at 40hz.. my question is if i want to run my IDQ15s ported and tuned to 28-30hz would the bass boost hurt the sound of the subs?

Yeah if not used right it will make the amp clip and eventually ruin the subs if pushed to hard. I recommend you dont use it and your subs will sound better if you set your amp right and dont use it.

"Bass boost" should really be renamed to "distortion boost"

99.97% of the time, it is a very bad idea to use it.

Set your amp right, and spare your subs the abuse.

I have the same amp on a BL. I do not use the bass boost at all and the sub sounds great.
