What is the proper way to adjust the settings on my SUNDown 3000?

I'm only adjusting it to be clear to my ears as of now

Can someone explain each potentiometer setting? / What each one does? and how to adjust properly. Do I set different if I want "lower" or "higher" notes to come alive?

Thanks in advance ~Ronrico

The gain knob is pretty self explanatory. I'm assuming you know how to set the gain on amps correctly.

Next is the subsonic filter, used to keep your sub from playing below tuning and shitting itself. You'll want yours around 30hz.

The LPF (Low Pass Filter) keeps your sub from playing too high into the midbass frequencies. I usually have to play around with this to get it to blend to my front stage. You'll need to do the same as every one has different tastes.

You can leave the Bass Boost at zero.

The phase knob changes polarity on the amplifier. Sometimes this can give you a better sound, sometimes it can worsen it. Another setting to play with to see what you like.

Would the phase knob only need turning all the way to completely shift or will sometimes the variables in between help a system

Sometimes the settings inbetween can sound better than hard left or hard right.
