[QUOTE="audioholic, post: 6310923, member: 549629"] Oh, and to answer your other question, no, turning your gains down will only serve to limit amplifier output. If you have an amp that outputs 100 watts (for example), turning the gains down will limit its output to something less. Many times this is done when you have an amp that is capable of over driving the speakers. So in effect, it has the opposite affect of damaging speakers, it will limit output (watts) to the speaker and hinder the amp's ability to damage the speaker. Your questions were a bit noobish, but that's totally okay. That's what this forum is all about, learning about the hobby we all participate in here. Do not be afraid to ask a question if you dont know. If someone harasses you for asking, they are being the jack[COLOR=Black]a[/COLOR]ss, not you. Hope I helped. [/QUOTE]
