[QUOTE="trumpet, post: 8419198, member: 628688"] Set the gain with the knob turned to its lowest setting, then turn it up with care while listening to music, treating it like a single band of EQ to adjust the bass to taste. If the amplifier is capable of making a lot more power than the sub is rated to handle you may want to skip the bass boost knob for daily listening. The pre-outs on the head unit and the amplifier should both be checked with an oscilloscope and trusted test tracks to see when clipping begins. [/QUOTE]
