[QUOTE="El Ropo, post: 1624871, member: 561863"] Yeah, that doesn't sound right. What test tone are you using? Are you connecting the DMM directly to the amp's speaker outputs? Do you have loudness on? How high is the sub volume set on the HU? What volume level on the HU are you using to set the gains? What is the sub's rated impedance? Dual 2? If you do have a dual 2 ohm sub, then the AC voltage you'd be looking for would be the square root of (1200 x 1) = 34.6, or you could push the amp a bit more and set it to 1350 watts or so... sq rt of (1350 x 1) = 36.7 Volts AC If your electrical system is suspect, then I'd suggest setting the amp to just 1200 watts.
