[QUOTE="IgnoreMe, post: 3079023, member: 551352"] it really doesnt matter where your gain is, because its all related to your headunit. if your headunit has say 2 volt preouts, your gain is going to need to be set much higher than say an eclipse hu with 8v preouts. as long as you do the math right, set your gain properly, youll be ok in the end. there are too many variables to say every gain will be set to xx position. what voltage are your preouts? and whats your max volume? if your max volume is say 35 and you clip at 23, even if you running say a 4v preout deck, you wont reach 4 volts till 35. so if you clip at 23 and set your gain using that volume, your gain will have to be set even higher to compensate. not sure if that makes sense. for example, those 4 volt preouts might only give out 1.3v @ volume 23 [/QUOTE]
