Hey Max,
Here's a few tips I use and it's what's recommended by JL:
  • Turn off Bass EQ and adjust gain/input sensitivity first
  • Turn on Bass EQ
  • Start with a "Q" of 1.6
  • Set the Crossover to 45Hz
  • If you're sub is in a ported box, turn on the infrasonic filter. If it's sealed, turn it off

Don't forget that these features only work in LP mode. My final settings for a JL 10w6v2 in a 4080 enclosure are:
  • Bass EQ on
  • 12 db slope
  • Q of 1.4
  • Crossover 40Hz
  • Infrasonic Off
  • RBC-1 Bass Controller installed between heater switches to control boost

Hope this helps. Feel free to PM me with any other questions or concerns. Good luck!

Do you think these setting would transfer well to a 250/1 with the same sub and enclosure?

The 250/1 doesn't have all of the features of the 500/1 but I would recommend the following:
  • Infrasonic off
  • 12 db slope
  • Crossover of 50Hz
Also, I don't think I'd run a 10w6v2 with a 250/1. It just doesn't have enough grunt to push that sub properly. It would work great with a 10w3v3 or the new 10w0v2.
