[QUOTE="rmdl51, post: 3373884, member: 570288"] Well, even tough I spend my whole weekend at home doing my complete first install ever, I'm so happy with it and everything works perfectly thanks mostly to all your advice and suggestions when buying and installing all this stuff. Hifonics Brutus bxi606 power up 2 10" subs Kicker CV-Rs DVC @ 1ohm Kicker KX650.4 power up 2 comps Phoenix Gold 6.5" RSD HU still my old Pionner DEH7700mp Now as a noob at this stuff I still have a few questions, specially when it comes to equalize my sound and adjust gains and all the knobs on the amps. First I've read the basics and I do have some knowledge but nothing too advanced, I know the gain is not a volume knob but I don't know how to turn it up safely, I start with all the knobs all the way down and with the volume at 50% and I can barely hear it, so I equalize the settings on HU and Mids and high are still low so I turn clockwise the gain about 45 degrees on the kicker amp and now it's much better, but I don't know if it's safe, I've read about how to adjust the gain properly but I don't have the required equipment to measure the proper gain. Now, the punch on the Subs is still pretty low even I've turn all knobs on Hifonics about 90 degrees, remote bass is all the way up and Sub settings on the HU is at Maximum, my question is, how can I know if is safe to turn all the knobs up on the hifonics, of maybe just the bass EQ knob, sub sonic knob? I don't know [IMG]//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/confused.gif.e820e0216602db4765798ac39d28caa9.gif[/IMG] Maybe is a dumb question but I'm still not so familiar with frequencies, I don't even know which setting is better on the HU when it comes to freq, is has 50-80-125hz, I feel so ignorant about this [IMG]//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif[/IMG] I would really appreciate if somebody could help me to understand how to get the best sound of my new system, Thanks!
