Nope thats at the power wire/chassis ground. ^^^^^^^^^guy above me^^^^^^^^^^^^ I think I'll follow your advice, thanks everyone.

Allright well I did that, looks like my car is making 12.5volts with the engine off and about 13.9 with the engine at idle. A lot of amps actually make their rated power at 14.4 volts though, right? Can I expect to see that while on the throttle? Is 13.9 volts actually more common in your...

So I would do it at these settings? Thanks again guys.

This is probably a REALLY stupid question, but I just got a digital multimeter to properly set my amp's gains, could I use it to test how much voltage my car is putting out, i.e. by connecting the test leads directly to the battery, or better yet to the power wire that's going to my amp and to a...

First of all I want to thank everyone who has contributed to this thread, amazing help. My question is, I understand how to do all these calculations, but what about setting the voltage to the sub's power rating rather than the amps? Specifically, a (slightly) underpowered sub. Numbers to...
