[QUOTE="FullThrottle7, post: 722056, member: 546116"] Ok, well, I hooked the amp up last night and I have to say I'm kinda dissapointed. Unless I have to take the amp apart to get to the gains, which I highly doubt is the case, this amp is definately not underrated. My current crossfire amp puts out a little more power so I think I'll be keeping that hooked up. The only info I can find is what was posted above on the McIntosh and that thing about continuously variable crossover sounds like the amp just guesses whats best and picks that frequency???? After looking a bit closer, I think the second channel input I was looking at yesterday isn't active. They probably use the same chassis for other models, however, with such a high end brand, I am somewhat skeptical of this reasoning. There is a pretty cool guage on the top of the amp that shows how much power its putting out at any given time, though, and its jumping to right about 500 when I turn the volume up loud, so it may just be doing what its supposed to and I'm just expecting too much. Any thoughts on the gain thing?? [/QUOTE]
