[QUOTE="montx, post: 3577740, member: 573693"] Alright. I have set my gain on the amplifier with a 50Hz test tone, to 63V. Since most music isn't as powerful as a test tone, can I turn the head unit volume up a little more without doing any damage? Because I know whenever I had Lil Jon's "Da Blow" cranking I could only get it to reach 59.9V with the gain turned all the way up. Another tiny question: I have a Pioneer 4900IB. It has 4V pre-outs with a subwoofer out. On the subwoofer frequency there is an option to change the subwoofer from 1-6, right beside the frequency. What is this number and what should I set it to? Thanks. [/QUOTE]
