[QUOTE="HCCA, post: 5292762, member: 571196"] In the car audio realm..I wish that were true. But, the head units on the market today will clip the output signal before you reach full volume. No amount of gain adjustment will fix a signal that is already clipped. The gain downstream is not the reason it's clipping, and I challenge anyone to show me a standard, off the shelf HU, with a rated 2V output (or less) that does not clip the output signal near full volume. So,...you're going to stop turning up your volume at the [I]exact[/I] point where clipping begins? And...you've tuned your system this way?!? Also, if you read what I posted earlier, again, umm...it DOES contradict the point. Whatever... [/QUOTE]
