[QUOTE="tranced, post: 7825789, member: 642896"] man if i would of known half this stuff before i started lol. well anyways it looks like his HU has a 2.5v preamp out put (jvc kw-r500). and its really hard to gauge the gain settings lol. it only has 1 reference point at .5v slightly at 1 o'clock lol. they should label these better than they do. Anyways so what i take from all this is this happened bc the gain on his amp was set or calibrated for a specific volume for his 12, and because he had to turn it up more(he had it crankin near max volume) for my 10, it sent clipped signals and nearly toasted sub. lesson learned *edit im looking into buying this HU also. this alpine has such a terrible eq [/QUOTE]
