Alright I bought a Alpine MRD M500
now what should i set my gain at it does the gain -0 to -24db
which is = to (0.5v to 8.5v) right now i got it at about -12 and 0 is full gain i listen to my alpine 7893 at around volume 28/30 with a total of 35 on the knob and i think it still has more in it... but some songs just ****en rumble the ****in **** outta my car and some are alright
my alpine is a 4v sub prevout so
alright so there are upto 8 volts right -24db
would be 8.5v in right (0.5v to 8.5v = 0db to-24db)
so 24\8 =3 so each -3dbs =s 1 volt? so
4x3=12 so at -12db at im 4.5v preamp and the .5 would be 1.5 amps so 11 it should be?
now does this seem right to you guys cause thats above 1/2 by 1 notch?
