[QUOTE="phantom240, post: 2773606, member: 562504"] I cant really explain. Well maybe I can shed some light at least. Most people set their gains using a test tone at a given volume level on their HU... which is fine... I use music to set mine for my components. I also use amps that are larger than you would think to use on them. Then I set my gains to how many watts RMS I want to push out on music, and thats about it. I know there are probably better ways to do this, but it works for me and I havent blown up anything yet (knock on wood, eh?) btw, it isnt an exact science. [/QUOTE]
