Hmm.... sounds accurate to me, right and that's just a DC measurement. Cheap meters (under $100) are not going to be very accurate at reading AC and especially if it's not a tone near 60hz. I'm only a couple classes away from being an electrical engineer and I would never use a DMM to set my gains unless I was gain matching two identical amps and even then, I would use a scope and not a DMM.Also, your amp isn't always going to see a purely resistive load like you're setting it for.</blockquote>
