Different subwoofer settings for different albums?

Undoubtedly the low bass in some recordings is more pronounced than in others and the desire to get up and make sub adjustments is hard to resist!
I`m sure that most people starting off with sub`s do what I did and run them too loud. In my modest experience that tends to subdue the rest of the frequency range especially the highs. 
The best setting is where you can notice how much better the overall sound is make when listening with and without them even though their contribution sits in the background.
