[QUOTE="FadedSpy, post: 8328842, member: 636884"] I'm not sure if this is common knowledge but when I got my subs and wired a digital voltmeter to the amp I had my db on my ken wood Exelon head unit set at +3 db and the voltage hung around 13v. When I adjusted my db level to +9 then my voltage hung around 13.8 and when I max it out at +15 db then the voltage meter reads 14.2 My question is...should I adjust my amp to play with my head unit all the up at +15 db's so I can keep my voltage as close to 14.4 as possible? Will it hurt anything as long as I'm not clipping the signal? At +15 I had to turn my gain way down to about 30% which should be better for the amp in theory? I always though the db setting on the head unit was a type of bass boost and bass boost is bad! I have tried to google this information but can't seem to find anything on this topic so I'm coming here. [/QUOTE]
