[QUOTE="wew lad, post: 8493945, member: 665412"] if you have a clip light and you know what clipping sounds like you're 100% way better off. said this before, korean amps i set by ear and i have no problem soft clipping them. brazilians i use the clip light and verify with my scope. i do not clip it hard otherwise - dumb idea. i thought the dmm method was great too, until i realized just how dynamic music recording level is. you will [B]never[/B] have a one size fits all gain setting. you need to know what overdriving your equipment sounds like. im talking about subs here. door speakers need to be set conservatively or with an oscope. dmm works but i would not trust it unless we're talking about low power less than 100w or power split up to so many coils a soft clip wont matter [/QUOTE]
