[QUOTE="Alrojoca, post: 8001907, member: 638714"] Where the gains is set is irrelevant to the front or back speakers, first ther rears are more difficult to hear since they are lower and if you are in the front you can't hear them as if you were in the back and had your head at arm rest height. Second the polks are more sensitive speakers 92 db spl versus 88-89 db spl on the pioneers, this means lower gains for the polks, use the fader to set the gains, the output level is probably there unless the polks are bad or some settings on the HU need correction. The rears are fillers anyway and not as important as the fronts. Best way to set the gains is with a voltmeter, if your HU has 5 volt RCA's your gains gains don't need to be set high, if they are 2 volts they need to be set high. [/QUOTE]
