[QUOTE="preacher, post: 1604736, member: 566817"] I have a Pioneer 7500MP and a BBE 4012 Sonic Maximizer (hooked to the front only) My fronts are hooked to a TMA 3202 amp. I'm having trouble getting my gain set. I looked at JL's tutorial, but I lack a testtone cd and a DVM. How do I know if I'm distorting? I like my sound sometimes, but other times it seems a bit too much. I think I get distortion for certain upper mids at about between 33-35. Below that it sounds great, but it lacks the hard kick I like and I think its capable of. Could I be distorting the input of the Processor? Should I a line driver or Master volume control to control the gains after the processor? Thanks G [/QUOTE]
