There are certain frequencies people use for setting the gain on the amplifier (such as 1000 Hz for mids) and when competing, some people have the time to plot out their vehicle's resonant frequency and burp at that frequency. People who don't know their frequency just use sweeps. You can also use test tones to adjust the EQ on a head unit or external EQ.
