[QUOTE="Jeffdachef, post: 8396945, member: 650438"] Play a bass heavy song at at your nomal listening levels, then slowly turn up your amplifier gain. if it stops getting louder or makes a wierd noise or any distortion in the way the bass sounds, then you are at clipping point, back it off a little bit. Do a few minutes test session and see how hot the subs/amp gets and if it doesnt got hot, you are good. If it does get hot, back off the gain a little bit more. DO NOT USE BASS BOOST AT ALL leave it at zero, THAT GOES FOR HEAD UNIT SETTINGS AND AMP. If anything smells, turn it down even more. [/QUOTE]
