[QUOTE="Lmobeats, post: 8651294, member: 675273"] So I'm getting an Orion xtr 2500.1 delivered and it's rated at 2500 @ 1 ohm so I should be looking at setting my gain at 50 volts. Yet on the Dyno on certified it's delivering 2800. So should I aim for 2800 watts (53 volts) or the 2500 rated watts (50 volts) using ohms law. These amps are underrated and my fi 18" subwoofer is rated for 3000 rms. So I'm not worried about overpowering it. I don't have an oscilloscope so measuring volts is the most accurate way for me to calculate clipping [/QUOTE]
