Glad you got it all figured out. FYI on the remote ... You can turn the input gain on the amp all the way to 6 volt and then use the remote to control the gain from the front.

I don't know that I'd turn the gain on the amp ALL the way up. I think it would be too easy to accidentally flip the remote gain over a few notches too far and send it into clipping. I'd rather set the gain on the amp properly, then use the remote to turn it down. You'd also have a lot more finite and incremental control over the output of the subs that way.

Very good points!

I personally don't use the remote. Better to set the gain on the amp and leave alone.
