[QUOTE="geonfreaq, post: 7370744, member: 554113"] I'm kinda confused now. I know the formula for using a DMM to set gains (I can not get my hands on a scope till next week) but all my sub amps have only had one set of speaker connections (+-) My new amp however has two (-+-+) I have two subs (D4) and each is wired to two ohms and connected just as the following picture shows. [IMG]http://i47.photobucket.com/albums/f196/jasonsrussell/7f9b4f52.jpg[/IMG] The birth sheet on my PR1x1000 says 1165w. Not sure at what voltage that was tested at though. I am getting 14.3v at the amp. What voltage do I need to be getting from the amp when setting the gains and with what test tone? 50hz? The way I'm figuring this is 500w out of each connection so at each (+-) I should be shooting for 22.36v correct? Jason [/QUOTE]
