Bronze Member Username: Aqua_acuraPost Number: 11 Registered: Aug-07 | Hi, I've never worked with digital amps before, as well as the fact that I have a new headunit. The owner's manual states that the voltage clips at 4v, so that means I set the amp anywhere below 4v? The reason it confused me was that the lower the voltage, the louder the bass, so I was a little confused. Thanks. |

Is there any "dangerous" voltage? Would it be better to set the volts lower or higher (settings are for 0.1-0.5, 1.5, 2.5, 4, and 8 volts)? |
