[QUOTE="Phased, post: 8647352, member: 675212"] I like to trust my amps xover more than headunits. Nor do I use bass knobs, just me. Be sure to only use either or, not both xovers. Set your gain on amps to match hu output Voltage. Turn your volume up to 3/4-7/8 volume. Then slowly turn up amp gain until you hear audible distortion, then back it down slightly. This should not need to be adjusted again, leave it alone. Turn your sub xover to whatever frequency you think sounds best with your type of music. Play the sub and adjust this from zero to where it sounds best. Typically 20-80hz. Again, this shouldn’t need adjusting again, leave it alone. For your components and coaxial speakers With passive xover, turn xover to OFF or FULL. If you feel too much bass is coming through to speakers then revert to a HPF at 100-160hz. The adjustments you may make on the fly should be equalization. [/QUOTE]
