Default Frequency cutoff for aftermarket amp?

Guys I'm installing an 8" subwoofer (JL 8ib4) with a kicker 400.1 with bass remote. Those of you with the aftermarket sub and amp in your SC430 can you tell me what frequency you have the crossover cutoff at?

Using hi level input has its own crossover. That is what i am using since the freq. varies with the top being up or down. If you use the amps xover and hi level inputs you are going to have 2 xovers.

try 50 to 80hz...whatever bass frequency blends better with your components and does not pull bass to the back of the car is your cutoff point.

Obviously the discussion here is above my head, but please answer a question for me.....where is the "9th" speaker? Apparently there is a subwoofer somewhere?
