How do I reduce high hiss in my Rockville USS10 Subwoofer?
- N
  Nicholas WilsonSep 6, 2025
  To troubleshoot high hiss in your Rockville Subwoofer, disconnect all RCA inputs from the power sub's control panel. If the hiss disappears, plug in the component driving the amplifier and unplug its inputs. Continue this process until you identify the faulty or noisy component. Set the amplifier's input level control as low as possible, maximize the head unit volume (without distortion), and minimize the amp input level for the best signal-to-noise ratio.
