I know that this is an Audio and Electronics question but would like to know if any of the 6th Gen's owners can help.

Hi all, need help configuring the settings for my Kicker KX600.1, first time installing an amp w/ subwoofer.

I'm getting my car back on Saturday and would like to know how to setup the Amp.

First off, I am hooking up the following to the factory Bose system w/ Nav.:

Kicker Solo-Baric S12L74 Subwoofer (DVC 4 ohms x 2)
Kicker KX600.1 Amp
R/T 793-12 Sealed Enclosure made of MDF with 1.00 cu. ft. of volume.

I will be wiring the subwoofer to make into a 2 ohm load. Basically, connect the 2 negatives on the woofer and then to the negative of the amp and the same with the positive to create a 2 ohm load. I have never done this before but that is what I have read and want to do. They say that by wiring the sub that way, it will give me the full power of the amp.

Now, what I want to know is how to set the dials on the amp. There are 3 dials.

1. X-Over Freq. (hz) 12dB/Oct from 50, 75, 100, 125, 150, 175 & 200.
2. Gain Low Level 170mV-5V & High Level 340mV-10V from 0-11
3. Bass Boost (dB) @ 40 Hz from 0, 3, 6, 9, 12, 15 & 18.
And also a remote Bass Leverl Remote.

Any help is greatly appreciated. I will definitely post the pics once it is installed.

One last thing, I read on Cardomain that I will need a 4 gauge power lead for this amp but I got the amplifier kit that has an 8 gauge power lead for maximum of up to 600 watts, will the 8 gauge be ok?

For the people that have not seen what has happened to my car, take a look at the link below.
