Gain up almost full normal?

[sq_joshua]

I have a question i have a 15 hds3 in a ported box and it does catch the lows but the sub looks funny when it hit them i have a ground shaker ported box what do you think box isnt tuned right or i need to fix my lpf? And is it normal to go almost full on my hifonics 2000.1? I have a epicenter on it but when i want to bump some decaf or something i go nearly full gain??

the gain should never be at almost full. normally 1/3 is the gain level. when its at full or almost full it shows that you are giving it small signal and your radio volume should be raised and the gain lowered.

Best way to set gains on a budget is test tone on repeat and DMM
