I would do the LC-1 after the epicenter personally.

x2.

The best thing to do is either with a DD-1 or a scope.....

check for signal clipping after the HU, then check for signal clipping after the epicenter on full volume un clipped HU volume, Then with HU at full unclipped and epicenter at full unclipped, plug into the LC-1 and max out the LC-1 knob, then plug the RCA's into the amp and set the amps gains. LC-1 doesnt alter the signal, it just regulates the voltage.

edit: and you will want your epicenter flat when you set the gains. And remember, it is better to lower the peaks, then it is to boost the valleys in a response curve with an epicenter.

But you are correct. Don't boost. Lower surrounding freqs.
