it's not suppose to play high frequencies...

edit: if you mean higher bass frequencies, just tweak the crossovers on the amp til you like what you hear.

1.0/Sealed/300 RMS it hits very hard and clean sometimes it misses it, is it maybe becuase iam bridging the amp?

It could also be that your electrical or amp cannot produce the power needed to supply the sub with low frequency bass. Also what do you consider LOW LOW Freq? What points do you have your cross-over set at?
