Default Base Setup for High pass and Low pass filter

I am not completely happy with the setup the shop did for my system and not the greatest when it comes to this area. I have the KDC-MP922 kenwood head unit with JL 6450 amp, jl 650xi and 650si front and rear speakers with jl w010 sub.

Can someone please give me an idea where to start and move on so I can get the best sound from this?

thx

Where to start with what? Do you think you need to change your xover points or your gains or maybe both? What is wrong with the system now...why don't you like it?

Where to setup the High and Low pass filters, and which way to move them to get the best sound.

The wiring is fine. I am just not thrilled with the sound. I know the system has to sound better then this.

Kenwood KDC-MP922 Head Unit
Kenwood KTC-SR902 Sirius Tuner
JL VR650CSi Front Speakers
JL VR650CXi Rear Speakers
JL e6450 AMP
JL W010 Sub with JL Sub Box Enclosure.

Right now the amp runs all the speakers, and sub. The head unit also has a built in amp, but disabled.
