Am I In Phase?
If your inputs are out of phase and you turn the balance control of your radio all the way to one side, right or left, the bass output from the Bazooka~ will increase.

Phase Cancellation
When two speakers in the same frequency range produce sound waves that are inverted from one another or 1800 out of phase, the sound waves will cancel each other out to some degree. This effect will be heard as a drop in the output level and/or a muffled or muddy quality in the Bass Response. The source of this Phase Cancellation can be at any point in the signal path. The obvious cause of this problem would be a speaker connection that was reversed in polarity, but that is not always the case. Sometimes amplifier channels will shift phase 1800 for no good reason, or a signal processor could have a setting for phase that has been set incorrectly or the
