Well, HK doesn't have a EQ. I've got the treble center and the bass is about 3/4.
On the sub, phase shift is on 180, Low bypass filter is about 60%, Bass boost is 50% and Gain is about 40%.

Ah, so you didn't use the screws that were provided with the kit?

No, too short to get through everything.

No issues overheating for me. But mine was too heavy to put on my back seats so mine is mounted on the floor of my trunk. Oh and I have an F80. I think I want to somehow add another one to my trunk for more bass.

This thread is killing me. I have a powered 12" JL that was supposed to be installed Thursday, but COVID.

Damn you BestBuy.
