[QUOTE="ThxOne, post: 8717652, member: 675210"] I read this PDF manual 3 times... how I missed this 3 times, I don't know. They have this under the heading "EQ Sample Setup" which may be how I missed it.... [B]Level Setting The System NOTE: Remove all speaker leads from all the amplifier(s) to ensure the speakers are not damaged during setup.

It looks for and makes it 2v which is why it tells me my max volume on my head unit is 35 and not 40.
