Did I put the gain too high?

[sothrowd 10+ year member]

hey I got a ss xta600.2. It pushes 600 rms 300rms per sub. My subs are 500 watt rms and 1000 peak. Now i got the gain on the amp up all the way, the bass boost up all the way, and on the HU I got the subwoofer volume up all the way. Is this bad for the subs at all? And btw, i listen to my music on full blast, ima bass junkie.
