don't bother witht the bass boost, it's just unnecessary power.

since you probably aren't going to set the gain with a dmm or anything I'd wouldn't recommend turning the gain up more than halfway or so.

as far as the crossover that's based on preference, play around with it a little bit and see what sounds the best to you. I personally wouldn't set it any higher 80 hz.

NO!!!

Well I know that much its just I just want the best bass I can get w/ my setup

i was just kidding obviously........but just use your ears and play with the settings until it sounds the best unless you are going to use a dmm

Someone told me not to turn the gain up alot cuz the subs are 103 sensitivity, 720 watts RMS and the amp does 750 rms at a 2ohm load plus I hear the amp is way underrated

Set the head unit volume 3/4 of the way up with the gains all the way down. Adjust the gains until you get distortion and then lower them just a bit.
