    amp powering question

    jw sometimes when i am measuring the voltage it jumps to like 200v...is that okay?

    amp powering question

    **** so voltage=sqrt(power*resistance) ? that sucks a lot...if i put my gain just above half way and listen to my music at my normal volume it goes a little above 250watts...guess i have to keep gain half way and with no bass boost this JL sub is hella weak

    amp powering question

    stupid question- how the hell do you measure voltage to sub? i just bought a dmm and i have negative at negative and positive at positive on speaker wire and it just keeps showing 0

    amp powering question

    so why would you recommend me adjust the gain instead of bass when i was trying to reduce power to sub? sry for the n00b questions...still confused when bass boost should be off

    amp powering question

    i have a cadence TXA-1502 powering a 8" JLw3v3 and it is set at 300watts at 4ohms but i don't want the sub handling that much. i only want the sub getting 200-250watts...i have the input gain set half way and bass eq set at about +10 dB (max is +12 dB) with the HU bass on max. should i be fine?

    got my car back. the problem was poor connections to everything. ground location was fine, but connection poor. ring terminal to battery poor, LOC connection poor and swaped. wiring was all good and he used my original wires, what was changed were the rings and clamps. i guess it can kinda be...

    i'm back with bad news. hooked up another amp, no go. immediately sets itself in protect mode. my friend and i then did a thorough analysis of the entire setup. first of all we know that neither the speaker wire nor RCA wires can be causing this so we had those disconnected- we are left with...
