Default Added Sub and Amp Today

I added a new Alpine 10" Sub in a sealed box.
SWS-1043D - Alpine 10" Type-S 900 Watt Dual 4-Ohm Subwoofer

Alpine 500w Mono Amp
MRP-M500 - Alpine Mono 500W subwoofer amplifier

It adds alot to bottom end of stock system Ive got the gain turned way down
so good deep bass no shake rattle and roll.

I know you said you have the gains turned way down, but does it sound bass-heavy now when complimenting the stock mids and tweeters?
