[QUOTE="jonerickson1, post: 7037682, member: 626777"] I have a mrp-m1000 alpine amp, 1000w rms @ 2ohms. Fosgate T1D410 4 ohm DVC wired @ 2 ohms 600w rms I tried the 40 hz 0 db test tone and used the DMM to set it to 35 volts It sounds ok but doesnt seem to be pushing the sub too hard. when i play a regular song it only reads about 20 volts I know the music signal isnt a sine wave but is that voltage still a representation of the power going to the sub? How hard can i push it? How do you do the distortion method? Is that a good method? Any other tips/ tricks would be nice. This is my first install. [/QUOTE]
