[QUOTE="squeak9798, post: 1234441, member: 555320"] And guess what......with a lower gain setting, a higher preamp signal is required for a given output level. And if your headunit is not capable of providing that higher signal, your amplifiers output will be decreased [IMG]//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif[/IMG] If your headunit is only capable of delivering a maximum output voltage of 2V, and you set the gains on your amp to a level where 4V is required for full output, you have effectively used the gain to control the amplifier's output because the headunit does not have sufficient voltage output to drive the amplifier to maximum output.
