[QUOTE="2006F150Screw, post: 2266136, member: 570545"] Problem setting gains I guess but my radar detector and seat belt reminder chimer is louder than this setup. I figured this system would be ear splitting loud. I figured my gain settings to be 24.49 on Lrx-2.500 (sqrt of 200x4) and on the Lrx2.250 to be 20 (sqrt of 100x4) Any suggestions would be great. Here is my system setup: -2006 Ford F150 Super Crew -Pioneer AVIC-D2 Navigation Head unit. -Audison Lrx-2.500 (200w x 2 @ 4 ohms rms) powering 6.5 " Rainbow Germanium Comps. -Audison Lrx-2.250 (120w x 2 @ 4 ohms rms) powering 6.5" Rainbow Coax. -JL Audio 500/1 powering JL Audio 10Wv2 sub in a stealth box. Audison amps are both wired from head unit to the input on the amps (not the output). I'm running passive setup. I used both 50 hz, 60 hz, and 1000 hz test tone (not at once but independently and than hooked speakers up after each test tone and turned radio on but not much different) I tried setting gains using DMM with the DMM leads hooked into the speaker terminals on amp. I have all eq settings on HU either off or set to flat. I have volume on HU set @ 47 (75 % of max volume on radio which is 62). I tried with both low pass and high pass filters on amp turned off and also tried with filters turned on. and set the Lrx2-500 gain setting to 24.49 on DMM and on the Lrx2.250 gain setting till I got 20 on DMM. After doing this I was all excited turned truck on cranked radio to 48 and just wasn't don't know how to say it LOUD (it was loud but not LLLLOOOOUUUDD). Even tried after this turning EQ on and messing with settings and low mid and high freq. are set @ +2. Any suggestions are recommendations or something I did wrong please help me. Below is the link to the settings on the Audison amps. [URL="http://www.audison.it/content/eng_lrx2manuale.pdf"]http://www.audison.it/content/eng_lrx2manuale.pdf[/URL] [/QUOTE]
