hey guys, I really want to buy the new amp so I think i'm going to order it tonight. besides wiring it up like my last one, how do I set the gain so it doesn't stop working like the last one? the gain will stop it from having to much out too much power and that should inhibit it from crapping...

hey guys I need your advice once again. I used a multimeter to see that it was in fact my amp that was done (it's not sending out any power to my subs). What I need now is to figure out how to set the gain on my next amp to make sure that its not putting out too much power to blow. I have two...

my exact amp is a kenwood KAC_9104D. and thanks for the link, hopefully i'll be able to work through it and understand it =P

Hey all, So let me go over my set up first and then I'll explain whats happening. I have a pioneer avh-p4100dvd head unit, a capacitor, 2 kicker comps (800w RMS), and a kenwood KAC_9104D amp. Had this system thumping hard in my car for about 3 years with no problems (besides the occasional fuse...
