Will it power it? Yes. Certainly won't hurt anything. No sure exactly what you mean by "scared of the sound quality to go with the 2 ohm version"

Ground gauge should be equal to positive side gauge. No need for a grounding block but you certainly use on if you want too. 4g speaker wires??? No. 12g is by far big enough for that amp. The grounds for the battery and alt/engine are so short that you can probably get away with 2 or 4 gauge. Especially if you are running a factory alt. But my own personal OCD wouldn't let me use 1/0 for power and a different gauge for negative.

Sub clipping after setting gains - SMD DD1

Have you tried without the bass knob connected at all? -

when do you hear this? Does it change with volume? -
I don't know man. We are now officially way beyond what I understand! lol

I am super unfamiliar with that amp, if I were to guess though it would be something on the input side of the adjustments. That being said I have looked at the manual for about 5 minutes total. Speaking with Audiocontrol could help for sure. Is 52 the max with the gain all the way down?

I just went and read some of the instructions for your LOC. Turns out it isn’t a LOC at all really. Your headunit doesn’t have an output at all really. All it does is send a message to the amp and tells it what to do. That’s where the PAC AmpPRO intercepts the message and turn it into audio. There is no conversion from high to low level. Still doesn’t explain why you didn’t get a signal but very much explains why you can turn the head unit up to max with no distortion. And then your amp...lots of settings in side that thing. Start playing around in the amp’s settings (with no speakers hooked up) until you get a signal on the DD-1 to see what is going on. You have so many controls on the amp I’m guess one of those is the issue. It doesn’t appear the the PAC device has any output adjustments except to shut off the factory EQ.
