man that looks pretty good. a few things...

1. The Line levelers, your gains on them (I think) are supposed to be right at 12 o'clock. Not sure where the stock position is for the HPF on the LL's
2. I would however set the HPF on both amp channels somewhere around 70-80hz.
3. Do a system reset as that looks to be wired pretty well

So if you turn your radio to 13-14 clicks almost at max it's not that loud? Maybe I missed something in those pics.......

at 15 clicks (3 from the top) its about the same as the stock setup was, maybe slightly louder. as far as the line levelers they have default markings on them and they were all lined up. so your saying to switch to hpf on both front and rear and set to 80hz? i'll do a system reset before my ride home as well

It should be louder. Maybe the reset will work, but "in theory" 28v is 28v to the speakers. The plus side is that at 300X2 you can raise those gains a little more to 34V if you needed to, but you shouldn't have to. 200W is a TON of juice to some 6.5's.

Yeah the more power you give those speakers you are going to have to cut some of the lower frequencies. 6.5's can't produce subwoofer frequencies...70-80hz HPF should keep them safe.

When BT changed parts suppliers on the newer LL the default is 12:00 as shown in the same pic. Considering you are not getting the volume you should be I would set the gains on the LL to 12:00 then reset the gains on the amp.

Bertk the gains in his pic look like 5:00 to me instead of 10:00. Look closely at the arrow direction.
