Head unit sub level -6 or +6

[fcuked]

Just installed 2 12's in my girlfriends acura tl with the stock head unit.

Should the sub level be -6 - C - +6?

I set the gain for the amp at +6.

Settings with stock subwoofer was

Treble +2

Bass -2

Center +2

Sub +3

I usually set mine at +2 but not sure about this car because it goes into the negatives.

As long as us set the gains properly at +6 u can leave it at +6

Set the gainz at "c" that way you can adjust the bass per track.

Leave it at 0, plus or minus. For most head units, 0 is the setting where they don't clip the pre-amp setting at full volume. I tested this with a Kenwood and Pioneer. Also setting the amplifier gain at the 0 level, still leaves you some room at actually increase bass level on recordings with weak bass sound.
