[QUOTE="Nestacle, post: 5575746, member: 606985"] Hey guys, My friend and his dad set the gain on his alpine mrp-m500 amp awhile ago using a DMM. Now i know you are supposed to have the voltage on AC when using the DMM to set the gain, but what would happen if it was set to DC volts? Because when he was done the process of setting the gain, his gain knob was quite a bit higher than the "nominal" marker on the amp gain knob (it is alittle higher than the 0.5 volts marker), which to me doesn't seem right (you would think the gain would come out closer to the nominal position). His dad was the one who set the DMM and hes pretty sure he told him to set it to AC but what if it was on DC volts? thanks [/QUOTE]
