Silver Member Username: QuirkySA, Texas Post Number: 233 Registered: Feb-07 | I already bought it without the BP. Its going to be ok with an extra 200 rms right? |

Silver Member Username: Drant19DUB-C, TX Post Number: 732 Registered: Aug-07 | http://www.subwoofertools.com/forum/setgain.asp go there and put in the number of watts and the ohm its in. hook up a dmm to your speaker terminals on the amp. put a 50hz test tone on a cd and play that at 3/4 volume on headunit. set it to the number of volts the website gives you. and BAM, its done! |
