This amp running components or sub?
What amp is the other 1?
What model speakers?
What kind of RCA, speaker cables?

If you provide all these its easier for the sifus to help.

My guess:
You can try repositioning your sub.
Or turning up your midbass/ turning down your sub gain.
Or play with your comps highpass and sub low pass.
Or change your comps RCA to a slower type.
Or swapping your amps, Furi to run the comps and coax, RF to run the sub.
Failing all these, The Furi will have to go.

What do you mean by delay function.
I have yet to see an amp that can be delayed..

Bro not delay turn on...its a function that control the sound delay..example u can adjust left spk to produce sound slower than the right spk for a better listening position my rockford type rf x2 amp is Digital type so it have this function.Its a rare item hahahaha few ppl seen it.

Yea........ but a bit of a waste cause the rf decently powered + TA, so this amp obviously is for front comps.
