[QUOTE="bitwise, post: 617647, member: 556372"] I just tried setting the gain for a new cadence amplifier I bought (z8000 175x2RMS @ 4 Ohm). I used 37.4 as my target voltage. I started by playing a 1Khz test tone with volume close to maxed. My headunit is a Pioneer Premier 940MP. It has 6.5v preouts, and I know the amp can handle up to 10v inputs. Well I was turning the gain higher and higher and approaching the target voltage. I went as far as I could go on the gain dial, and It ended at 33.6v. What should I do about this? [/QUOTE]
