[QUOTE="RokintypeRs, post: 8134325, member: 628360"] ^+1. I usually use an O-scope to tune mine and get it to where I like it. Honestly your probably doing 500 watts rms if even that. I would just turn the volume up to 22 and see how it sounds from there. If its too quiet, turn it up a tad. If I'm tuning without the instrument, I usually set the amp to about halfway gain with +1 dB and see how it sounds because honestly the dB on any amp should not surpass its halfway mark. If it's a kenwood 719 then your headunit probably puts out 4v THATS A GUESS based on the model. Confirm your findings by playing a song that puts both a positive and negative beat or use your app and set it to different frequencies. I would personally go like 35 instead of 40hz to get the best sound and go from there. Up to you IMO. [/QUOTE]
