[QUOTE="hispls, post: 8634319, member: 614752"] My opinion has always been if your goal is listening to music set gains playing music (to what sounds good), if you're chasing 10ths set gains with the meter to what gives you the best numbers. I had never seen it before but when I saw the video with him holding a small speaker and capacitor I knew right away what was going to happen. Really a clever idea to find your amp's max output, whether it has a lot of practical uses is debatable, but considering some folks pay 200$ for a fancy SMD "tool" to do the same thing I think it's worth mentioning. He knows what he is doing, impedance may be high, and likely his build is plenty of loud enough without needing to push nearly a lot of power to his subs. [/QUOTE]
