Default Will these be okay?

I recently blew up my 12 inch alpine x type...Seeing im laidoff from work for a while i cant buy anything, However my buddy just gave me 2- 12 inch mtx tc512s the ones you can buy at futureshop there like red chrome almost. i realize there cheap crap but they were free. So there both single 4 ohm subs so if i wire them down to 2 ohm there both 300rms probably over rated but...Im powering them with the alpine mrd m1005. So what should my settings be, there both in sealed seaprate boxes because thats all i have laying around.

So what should the

low pass
subsonic on? or off?
EQ

Im going to set the gain using the test note and muti meeter

Also how can i test my rcas to see which is red and black, the marker on them dissapeared and id rather not pull them out to see. thanks.

Default Re: Will these be okay?

So using the test note and muti meter i have the gain set at 1.5 vlts (digital amp) and its at 30 ac voltage....If i bump it down to the next setting 1.0 vlts im sitting at 42 and it says for 600 rms at 2 ohms you want 34.6 max so 30 is good then? Also the bass boost is at 0 should i go up on that or no it goes to +16 db
