[QUOTE="jmw703, post: 7470977, member: 636263"] OK so i found out that i had a multimeter to measure the voltage. Just to clarify i want to make sure i set this right. Heres what i did. I have a 900 rms x 1 channel @ 2 ohm amp.. but i only want 800 rms @2 ohm so 800x2ohm = 1600 , sqrt of 1600 is 40 so i want to turn the gain up until it reaches just under 40. all bass boosters and eqs were set to 0. I put in a 50 hz tone into the cd player and turned to 28/40 volume, sub bass knob set to max, put the corresponding meter terminals to touch the speaker wire terminals on the amp and i raised the gain until it reached just under 40v on the meter. Is this correct? [/QUOTE]
