[QUOTE="Johnny Drama, post: 1234452, member: 554719"] If you have a head unit that puts out 2v unclipped signal at max volume, and set the gain then you take the same amp and set it with a HU with 8v, the gain will be lower... But...If you take the 8v and set the gain on the amp to half of what it was, wouldnt the amp be receiving or matching half the signal? My point is, it can only go up so far before clipping but it can go as low as the dial allows... Like I typed in my first post... 20v at the amp with be 100 watts @4ohm 14.14v will be 50watts @4ohm as long as the HU has the same settings was used to set them the amp WILL produce less power.
