[QUOTE="iceteebone, post: 598572, member: 549344"] the problem with that number is you are not running it at 1 ohm. lets say if the amp puts out 700 watts rms @ 2 ohms, you would take 700 multiply it by 2 and find the square root. supa is talking about matching the level with your headunits output which is the whole point of gains. you headunit puts out 6.5 volts so you try to find where 6.5 volts would be on your amp's gain. the problem with that though is your rca's will clip before 6.5 volts. the ultimate way to set gains is with an O scope. the dmm way works well also.
