Why are you bending your RCA's?

And as for amplifier settings:

LPF: 80-100Hz
Bass Boost: Minimal-None in most cases.
Gain: -Download a 50Hz test tone.
-Use the formula ---> V=sqrt(watts*ohms)
- Attach dmm to + and - terminals on amplifier. (after unhooking subwoofer.)
-Play 50Hz tone at 75% volume. Turn gain up until you reach the voltage you acquired by using the formula above.
-Shut everything off and reconnect your subwoofer.

You can download the 50Hz tone here:

Do what you feel is necessary at your head unit and enjoy.
