[QUOTE="endofdays89, post: 5412032, member: 594854"] Well, the truth is that distortion at lower frequencies is harder to catch... between rattling metal and the like, it's really hard to catch distortion. That's why tuning subs by ear is truly an art... and I'm not willing to risk equipment I didn't pay for on an art I don't practice often. well, if you have expensive equipment then i can see why you would set your gains correctly, it makes more sense to make your equipment last. But my hifonics amp does pretty good at the gain it is set at now and if it blows, then i guess i will just be shit out of luck, better save up my $160 to buy another one.[IMG]//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/laugh.gif.48439b2acf2cfca21620f01e7f77d1e4.gif[/IMG] [/QUOTE]
