[QUOTE="MillerSHO, post: 8043312, member: 647799"] I set my gains on my sub amp using the DMM. On the x996 I'm setting a max volume of 25/35. I did 500x2 which was 1000 and the square root of that is 31 so I set gains to output 30.5 when playing a 50hz test tone at volume 25. What I don't understand how to set is the gain on my fronts using the above method. It's 2.4LRX so it's a two channel amp with 130w per channel @ 4ohms but when I put on the DMM the voltage output at each channel is only 0-13.8. 0 being gain all the way down and 13.8 being the very highest gain setting. I'm running 1K test loop. What voltage should each channel on my 2channel amp be set to? (One gain nob so both channels should be identical) Is it 130x4ohms=520. Sq rt of 520 = 22.8 So would I divide 22.8 by 2 to figure out what each channel should read?(11.4v per channel) Thanks [/QUOTE]
