Get to someone that has (and knows how to use) an oscilloscope. The RMS calculation that everyone is doing isn't even 100% correct. The signal can still be clipping and you don't know it without seeing it. The ONLY way to set gains so that the amp is at its optimal performance level is to use the O-scope. You could be setting the gains lower than they should be with this voltage test you guys do. Every amp performs differently. You can have an amp that distorts more than another with the same exact specs. I would personally only trust my O-scope, and not the hand held scop, the test bench scope.</p></blockquote><p></p>
