[QUOTE="Andrizzle, post: 3684675, member: 573434"] Okay.. so i was outside trying to set my gains... did the whole voltage calculations etc.... My target is 89.4 v I have an MM4000.1 So i played the 50Hz tone speakers disconnected etc.... put the DMM in the outputs on my amp... And i get readings all over the freaking place... With volume low it is steady @ around 30.0ish Then when I increase volume the voltage is like 106.4-43.7-58.3-35.3 (you get the idea... it never stays remotely close to one area.) Maybe I have my DMM on the wrong setting? I was having it measure in XX.X volts.... is this wrong????? On the DMM in the volts settings its like (200m V) (2 V) (20 V) (200 V) (600 V with a lightning bolt) lol I dunno if t hat helps.. i just bought this DMM and am probbaly not using it right since i have little experience with them. Also on my amp... The gain is like 0.2V-9V... this IS my gain right? And bassboost is the one that goes from 0dB-18dB? Or am i wrong. Any help would be very appreciated. [/QUOTE]
