[QUOTE="Jeffdachef, post: 8308790, member: 650438"] that is true^^^ You still use a test tone and whenever you turn it up and the bass doesnt get loud anymore or if the tone of bass changes, that means you've already clipped it, step it down several notches and normally you should be okay, be sure to do 5-10 minute full blast test sessions to monitor the temperatures of both subs and amp. Main rule with setting gains by ear is: Do not confuse distortion with being louder! [/QUOTE]
