[QUOTE="SocialStealth, post: 5803978, member: 606051"] I read that link, and according to their calculator, my amp gains should be at about 3.7 for the infinity speakers and 2.3 for the JL audios. Thats assuming my hu is putting out its rated preamp 2 volts. The lowest gain setting is 8 volts and the highest is 0.2 volts. The JL's are set in the middle and the infinities are 1 notch below the middle. I'm no math wiz, but thats no wheres near 3.7 or 2.3 The built in clipping light on the amp does not turn on when at higher volumes, the amp just shuts off. The infinities are 2 ohms, and the only problem they would present is causing the amp to run hotter. Even so, the problem I'm having is with the JL audio's (4ohms) [/QUOTE]
