Hello all, quick question.
I just bought a SR single voice coil sub and still breaking it in but I was wondering what you guys think would be the best setting on my amp to crossed it over at? I have an older Rockford 800a2 two channel amp running mono at 800X1 watts.

The sub is in a 1.3 cu. box ,all I could find, store had 1.08 cu. boxes and I thought that would be too small .

I do have my door speakers ( MM's) amped up so the sound should be seamless and full but I just want to make sure this awesome sub is set up properly.

Thank you for any info,

    Start with 80 Hz and work down. Chances are thatll be a little too boomy. 63 is usually the sweet spot for both sound quality and output.
