Getting the Most Out of My Setup

[Gash05]

Hey, hopefully someone can answer my question //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

I have a single 12" Rockford Fosgate T112D2. It's rated at 600W RMS, 300W per 2-ohm coil. I have an Infinity REF1211A amp pushing it. It's rated at 854W RMS x 1 at 4-ohms. Can anyone tell me what I should set my gain at so I can be getting the most out of this subwoofer? I know it can go louder then what it's at now, anyone have any advice for me?

Lastly, I'm kind of confused about the whole "ohm" thing. My sub has 2 coils at 2-ohms a piece, but my amp is rated at 854W at 4-ohms and 1300W at 2-ohms. Is my subwoofer getting the 4-ohm load of 854W or the 2-ohm load of 1300W? Hehe, I'm very confused.

Thanks in advance.

I'm actually not too sure. I took everything to Circuit City and paid out the *** for installation then took it to a friend to have it all tuned and crap. It sounds alright but I've heard that it should sound louder...but yeah its a DVC with 2-ohms per coil. I'm going to take it back to CC tomorrow and ask them if they can look at it and since it's "broken in" to make it loud but not blow at the same time hehe.
