Gold Member Username: BestmankindLos Angeles, CA USA Post Number: 4953 Registered: Oct-05 | i am talking about the gain on the amp. don't worry about what your preout voltage is on the hu. as long as you match it up to your target voltage you will be fine. okay i put in the info in to that site and it gave me 49volts. just keep turning the gain back and forth until you see 49v on your digital voltage meter. you have to set that digital meter to ac. |
