I hate to hijack this thread, but I'm receiving my second sub today , an EP500 to go along with my EP350. I don't have a SPL meter, but I do have EZset/EQ I can use on my HK 247.

My question is, how would I use that in a two sub calibration? Do I need to have both subs on and set to about 9 o'clock on both of the dials? Or does one need to be set a little more "hot" then the other before hitting the calibrate button?
