[QUOTE="Franky, post: 8111555, member: 648067"] I have a SAZ-3500D (not the newer one) and I tried to set the gain with a multimeter, but all I can do is max out the gain / bass / bass remote and put my head unit on 20 out of 35 (cause that's where the normal speakers start to sound like crap). Also I'm running (2) dual 2 ohm 12' HCCA's wired to 1 ohm and I don't remember the specific head unit, but it was about $250 made by Kenwood. So according to Ohm's Law, I should need need about 59 AC Volts, but with everything maxed out like I said before, I can only get it up to about 45 volts... I've had it totally maxed out for the passed couple of days, and I the subs seem totally fine, but will running the amp at max be ok for its health? And also is there some way that I can increase the gain a little more so I can reach my full potential? Thanks in advance, and my system is finally operational so I might through up a build soon (Mazda 6 s) [/QUOTE]
