Help with tuning for new sound system

Hi I am new here and this forum looks realy good and proffesional.

I'v installed
HU:Pioneer 770MP
Amp 1: Hifonics 1610D
Amp 2: Hifonics 100.4
SUB: JL AUDIO 12W6V2
Front component set: Cerwin Vega V-MAX 65

I need help to tune it, I tried to do it by myself but I don't like the sound.
I guess it's not possible to help over the internet, but maybe you can advise somthing or maybe you have some place that you meet and show each other the cars and the setups?

Play with the equalizer. Keep the amp gains at around 1/2 but those should be set correctly - google "how to set amplifier gains". Ask yourself what you don't like about it and go about changing it. Maybe the highs are lacking, turn them up etc. There aren't many other options. Equalize, and set the gains properly.

Do you like the sub?

yeah I like it, I feel too many highs and the tweeters are working to hard on me, I installed it and installed few sound systems before. but never tuned it.
I'l try to play with it more.
do you guys meet together on some meeting event?
Or some one who did it before and live by the Toronto area?

Every night eh?

Don't you have some legal issues with hanging around high schools or has that all been cleared up now?....

Eugene if the Tim's doesn't work out I am down near Cawthra Rd. and Lakeshore Rd. E in Mississauga......I can probably help on Sunday or Monday coming up.

LMK.
