[QUOTE="xluben, post: 2116187, member: 568852"] -10db test tones!!! anyone care to explain how to find out where my HU clips at (with 0db tones)? do i need an o-scope? or can anyone with an alpine HU tell me where it clips at? i set my gains with the HU at 25/35 with -6db tones and i could hear clipping when i played some lil' jon stuff, so i set them with -3db and it sounded clean. maybe i'll have to try -10db tones and get some extra bump [IMG]//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif[/IMG] EDIT: and to the OP, i'd at least try -3db tones, they could get you the extra bump you need! also, what voltage did you set them to? and what voltage does it read with the couple extra clicks you mentioned?
