DUB Unregistered guest | Aight, check this out, I went to the JL website and checked out their "Gain Setting" presentation thing. I dont have that sh!t, I dont know CD plays at whatever range that it said, and I dont have a volt meter. So I was wondering, my HU volume goes to like 30 or 35 I think, I was thinking of turning the gain all the way down on the amp, turn the volume up to 20, let the song play and at the same time turn up the gain until its sounds like sh!t and then tune it down till it sounds perfect |

Once you have that info, set the amp's gain to whatever voltage it is. So if your amp is 8v max, and 250mV min, then set the gain around half way for 4v HU. |

DUB Unregistered guest | Yea I took a look at the manual, it this what I am looking for, I took a pic http://pic17.picturetrail.com/VOL809/3228131/6595604/98684028.jpg But what about what I said on my first post, can I do that? |
