[QUOTE="i2ain2thunder, post: 8124320, member: 631331"] Well ok guys did some work on it, all grounds are spiffy now. Voltage at amp input on DC with DMM shows never less than 14 volts even with amp clipping if I turn it up that high. Soooooo, why is AT D clipping at anything over 500 watts? I got this because the DMM output voltage (ac) at the gain level that starts to clip shows 20volts, @ 1 1200.1hm 20 squared is 400 watts (its a little more than that so we'll say at 500 watts shes clipping with 14 volts WTF?
