[QUOTE="bobmG8, post: 7153353, member: 625348"] A couple of questions... 1. Below is a list of Test Tones I found on the internet none of which are (-5db 60hz test tone) as described by the author. Which one should I use for my test? 2. How does this mathimatical equation enter the process... Multiply the maximum watts you want going to your speakers by the ohms of the speakers. The square root of that result is the voltage you want going to your speakers. So, the formula is: SQRT (watts x ohms). In my case 35W (amp rating) x 4 Ohm = 140, SqRt = 11.83? Does this equation replace what is measured from the RCA's with your meter when used to adjust the gain on the amp while connected to the speaker outputs?
