[QUOTE="mast240, post: 7440461, member: 631695"] you can wire it to either 4 or 1 ohm. your ac voltage you'll be looking for will depend on your final ohm load... so, take your rated wattage at said load, i.e. 100 x 1 @4 or 200 x1 @ 2... to do the math, you take rated wattage x impendance ... then take the square root of that sum example: 400 watts at 1 ohm sqrt(400x1)= 20 400 watts at 4 ohm sqrt(400x4)= 40 the sum of that is the ac voltage you will be shooting for when setting gain... so example one, you'll look for 20 volts ac, example 2.. 40 v ac [/QUOTE]
