Default Newbie Idea?

So when I mocked up my system I was pretty happy with the results- Arc Moto 600.4 JL ZR650's in the fairing and JL M770's in SBD lids... While the lids are out for paint, I got to thinking that since I've got the filter on the fairing cutting off the lows, set around 80hz, could I make better use of the Arc's bass boost with the M770's .. accomplished by switching the front to channels 3 & 4 and the rears 1&2?
I planned to run the rears full pass no filter...Thoughts on Bass Boost...

Or should I just leave as is till it's at least warm enough I can actually road test...

Leave as is Bro! Bass boost = clipped signal. No need to use it on full range speakers. Those are my thoughts.

Thanks Gan, you were right on the Fast Rings, so I'll trust your guidance on the Bass Boost.

Bass boost has 2 banes imo 1. clipped signal and 2. it puts more stress on the amp.

Set the amp on Full Pass for the M770's, it sounds the best imo
