I like setting my lowpass fiters no higher than 80 hz but sometimes 70 hz is the best depending on the sub. As far as subsonic set it a just a few hz below port tuning if the box is sealed you probably wont need it set but test it to see. The bass boost I leave alone typically and boost sparingly off the headunit. The gain should be set by digital multimeter. Phase is set by ear and from my experience one way is usually tighter and the other is louder but less tight.

and i assume 90 degrees (where both are hitting at the same time)is going to sound the tightest.

LPF: 80-100 hz whatever sounds best


Subsonic: a few hz below the tuning of your box


Gain: http://www.subwoofertools.com/forum/setgain.asp


Bass boost: off


Phase: 0

zero degrees would be the same. 90 degrees out of phase... one would be in the at zero while the other would be 90. so one sub is at it's resting position, while the other is all the way out one way.
