[QUOTE="NightDrifter05, post: 4875830, member: 573706"] Just set the gain right and you will be golden. Setting the gain is just using a DMM or setting it by ear. To set it with a DMM you take the RMS rating of your ohm load you are running at so just say 1500. You multiply that by the ohm load so with your amp I'm assuming 2ohms. 1500*2 = 3000 . Then you take the square root of 3000 which gives you 54.7. Take a DMM set it to volts and play 50-60hz tone and turn up the gain until you get the 54.7 reading on the DMM. You could also just set it by ear. Put all the setting's on the head unit to zero, turn the volume up to 75% of the max volume, and then turn the gain on the amp up until you hear distortion, and then back down on the gain a little.
