Audiopipe ASPM 1300 Gain

[Quadrider10]

Whats up guys?

So I've recently just bought an AudioPipe ASPM 1300 1000W RMS @ 1ohm Amp and a Soundqubed HDS210 Sub. the issue is with the amp. i don't have an oscilloscope, so ive been trying to adjust the gain both by ear and with a multimeter. The square root of 1000 is 31.6V, so ive set the gain to match that. 31V. This is with my HU at 25 volume out of 32 (max i listen to it), and my bass set to 0 out of 6 on the HU. i have my bass knob turned up to the max and set the gain to 31V. now when i disconnect the bass knob, my voltage shoots up to 42V. now i never listen to it without the knob bwcause i just cant stand that much bass in all songs etc, but i wanted to know if that is normal? should the bass knob still be resisting current even turned up as high as it can go? also is this alright?

What LOC? The cheap ones won't override the stock HUs EQ and cut off.

scosche. it sounds fine, but i was just wondering if it is normal for the bass knob to do that
