[QUOTE="DIGIDIGIBOMBO, post: 1877651, member: 562297"] Geezzz, y am i always having verrrrrrry poor results when setting gains using a 0dB,-3,-6,even -10dB test tones( specially with woofers, they are barely moving)...now i am only setting gains by ears, after setting the amp i tried to insert a test tone and used a DMM i had voltage double then the calculation method required me to use, rather then having 300rms pumped into the sub i was getting almost 600 which is the maximum power of the sub, same thing with speakers, and i havent damaged any speaker/woofer...? how is that?
