Just a quick guide on my setup:
JBL MS-8 (2 outs for front components, 2 outs for sub)
XD600/6 set to 4 channels
- CH1 = Front Left
- CH2 = Front Right
- CH3+4 Bridged = Sub Left
- CH4+5 Bridged = Sub Right

I never "tuned" things properly but I did set all my crossovers and set the AMP to 1/2 gain on all channels. Did I overdrive the SWS? I'm starting to think my other still working SWS sounds distorted (maybe its in my head). Any help work be appreciated!!
Very hard to blow it.
Check the wirings again.
Or use voltmeter to confirm.
