Buck, my two cents is to use D.A.R.O. on the JL Audio sub before using Audessy and, further, I would tell Audessy you don't have a sub. That way you only have one set of equalization on the sub. When it comes to subwoofers I have found that close to equal decay times are far more important than flat frequency response graphs. D.A.R.O. does a great job with the worst offender frequencies in a particular room location, especially if you locate the sub ideally to the listening position. Hammering down with EQ a subwoofer frequency response curve to be flat is a great way to achieve lifeless bass.
