I want to ‘test’ out my bass, pretty much set them to full blast with minimal music. I’m using Winamp at the moment but that can change, my friends tell me I should up the Preamp and max the first 3-5 bars or so. I’ve played around a little with the equalizer but it sounds really bad from the speakers. Any suggestions?
