One more question - when setting gain what do you all prefer - by ear or with a volt meter? I don’t have the kinda money to buy a distortion detection tool and occiliscopes are a little out of my price range as well. I can hear clipping pretty well but I know there is sometimes clipping the...

Gotcha so setting gain with the sub level on the HU at +10 will keep me from pushing it into distortion even at the highest level - makes sense now that you mention it. I will do that today! Glad I can come here and get reliable info instead of joe blow from YouTube saying something stupid like...

Yeah I understand the importance of a properly tuned enclosure for optimal performance - it’s a box I built to fit behind the seat of my Jeep (could only fit 1.1 cu ft of airspace per sub) which kinda limited me to a sealed enclosure, but I’m happy with the sound just wanted some clarification...

Ahhh see that makes sense - I wasn’t sure if the HU sent 4v out at 0 sub level or not - I will readjust the gains then. And sorry for the mistake I meant a flat freq response, already RTA tuned my Jeep and cut those mid range peaks for a flatter response. Appreciate the clarification it really...
