[QUOTE="logan09, post: 6720905, member: 619746"] I also have a JL 500/1 but I'm running two 12" JL WX's. I'm sure them 12w6's have a higher rms than my WX's do and mine are 250rms. Anyhow, a good way to go about it is this way... Turn all the settings on your headunit down to 0 and set your fade/balance to 0. Next, turn your headunit volume up to around 3/4 of it's max. From there, slowly turn up your imput sensitivity (Gain) and do the same with your freq response and bass boost until it sounds good to you. I have my gain set to a little under 3/4 of it's max. No idea what my bass boost is set at but I'm also thinking it's a bit more than 1/2 of max. Also, your amp should have came with a remote level subwoofer control to mount up front. You can always run a bit more gain or whatever and just tune it to your liking via the remote level control. I hope this helped you out man. [/QUOTE]
