[QUOTE="tracyrick, post: 2492382, member: 570552"] I can't find a conclusive answer on this: If my Alpine HU has a Sub volume control, do I turn that up to 15 (max) before I do the gain setting test, or turn it down to 0 ? Just did the 50hz test tone on my JL 500/1 amp (for a 12w6 at 2ohms) using an AC multimeter. Got to 31.6V with the gain turned up only 25%. Sub sounds weak - I think. [/QUOTE]
