[QUOTE="fithwheel, post: 8705809, member: 674179"] It’s for level matching. If you send a 4volt signal into the amplifier you’d want to adjust the gain to match that 4 volt signal without going over. That would get the most out of the amp without clipping provided you’re putting a clean signal into the amp. You won’t need to level match since you aren’t trying to get the most out of the amp on the other hand your sub might be able to handle the power. It depends on the sub and enclosure. For example I’ve used a single alpine type s sub on my 1k amp before without any issues. I would suggest being very conservative with yours at least till you get a little experience with your equipment and learn what pushing your equipment beyond its capabilities sounds and sometimes smells like. I’m sure he meant don’t. [/QUOTE]
