I figured that 10" version would hit pretty hard. Larger driver, larger magnet, three times the RMS figure ("Peak power".....:rolleyes

The subsonic filter will cut out anything below whatever Hz you set it at.
I would venture an educated guess that there is no way that speaker/enclosure is able to produce 30 Hz and below with any semi-reasonable efficiency or accuracy. Therefore, cut out everything below 30 Hz. Try that, then plus and minus 5 or 10 Hz. That super-low-end stuff that is beyond the driver/box capabilities is doing nothing but "muddying" your bass.
I do have "proximity" under the passenger seat vs. installed in the (relatively distant) trunk. I'd have even more proximity if I stuck the sub under the drivers seat, but I'm perfectly content for now to leave it in it's current location.
To be honest, I have not rechecked, reset, nor experimented with my subwoofer and HU settings. I've been too damn busy, but will fiddle with the features shortly. See what sounds best to me.
