[QUOTE="goingdef, post: 7692697, member: 584989"] setting the x-over is where playing it by ear works NOT on your gain no ones ears can hear distortion before it begins to damage audio equipment(and at high levels that damage happens fast) and when you set the gain WITH a dmm using a test tone you account for the fact music will not play as loudly by simply using a tone recorded at a lower level -3db -6bd or by simply setting the sub settings lower on the hu when using a 0db tone, past that the eq and sub out level will make up for musical imperfections. Not setting it by ear I run a T600.2@4 ohm per ch.and a 16mc2000d@2 ohms all on two runs of 4g wire one yellow top and a factory 70amp alt all with minimal to no dimming and no heat build! [/QUOTE]
