[QUOTE="g30ffr3y, post: 801311, member: 556438"] it really does have everything to do with where the gains are set on the amp... i set mine up with a 50hz test tone at -12 where it would not clip... with actual music i can turn it up close to 0 with no clipping... im planning to set it around -14 or so, so i would never turn it up passed 0... i drive around with a muliltmeter hooked to my amp daily so im always watching my voltages... the sub level control seems to increase the voltage slowly at first and then more aggressivly... as if a particular song is only at 6 volts or so and turn the sub level up 1 knotch it will increase by like a volt or so... but if youre already pushing 25 volts through it... 1 more knotch on the sub level control will bump it up by 3 or so volts... so be careful once it starts getting loud... that sub level thing can get you trouble quick if you play with it too much... standard mode goes to +6... i dont know about network mode... i love the 860 also.
