[QUOTE="tRiGgEr, post: 1868214, member: 552295"] As long as you have your volume about 3/4 of the way up, the sub output turned all the way up, and are using a 0db test tone. You sholdn't have to turn it up too much. Depending on your head units output voltage and your amps input voltage range. You were told correct. Setting the gains with a DMM will not prevent clipping, and can not be tested to verify. To do this you would need to use an O-scope. [/QUOTE]
