[QUOTE="x1le, post: 5950255, member: 596028"] [SIZE=36px][COLOR=Magenta][FONT=Impact]SEARCH!!!!![/FONT][/COLOR][FONT=Impact][/FONT][/SIZE] but to sum it up take the max RMS you want to run and multiply it by the ohms it will be running at (ie 1200 watts x 2 ohms) Then get the square root of that product. On your amp, turn off hp, lp, bb, and turn the gain all the way down and make sure your subs are not connected. Turn your head unit volume the absolute loudest you will ever listen to it at. Put your multimeter on the + and - speaker leads on the amp and make sure your meter is set to AC. Put on a test tone (most use 50hz) and slowly increase the gain until it as at or very close to the square root you got in the first part. Then set your filters and you're good to go. [/QUOTE]
