[QUOTE="ThxOne, post: 8669793, member: 675210"] That is pretty much what I already do... but I had to set the amplifier gains initially and I set my amplifier gains with a 40hz test tone for the sub amp and a 1khz test tone for the mids and highs amp and my head unit on 33 of 35. My sub amp gain was set with the remote knob 3/4 of the way up. 75%+ of the time I listen to the music with the volume between 25 and 30 and the bass knob at about 2 o'clock with 12 o'clock being half way up. Songs with the loudest recorded bass I turn the bass knob down to 9 o'clock. Rarely do I have to max out the bass knob. Once in a blue moon do I turn the volume to a max of 35. 32 of 35 seems to be the loudest I need it. The head unit is literally volume, seat position and EQ. Sub bass is the knob. [/QUOTE]
