[QUOTE="Mr FaceCaser, post: 8909192, member: 691034"] So I tried to do with a volt meter where you do 3000x the ohm load so in my case it was sp 3000x1 is 3000 then you take the square root of 3000 which is 54.77 and then you set your volt meter prongs to the speaker output and turn it up till the volt meter says 54.77 on ac current. When I did that method the subs didn't sound heavy like they use to and I was like there's something wrong with the amp. So I decided before I got another amp ill buy the taramps monitor that plugs into the amp. So I did and then I set it up and I turned the gain up until the clip light turned on then back it down a little bit to make sure im not clipping at all. When I did that the subs came alive again. So thats what I mean the gain was set way to low with the volt meter and so I set with the clip light and it works perfectly. Amp is staying above 13 volts when playing music and then if I play a 40 hz test tone it will drop down to 12.74. So thats what I did. [/QUOTE]
