Will it make my amp last longer by keeping 3/4 gain and half bass boost. I want to turn it up but also would like to keep the amp in good shape. Thanks. One more question not about amps. Where can I get cheap kicker grilles for my 10 inch cvrs? thanks

You have 300rms total out of your amp...Trust me you will be better off setting it to 300 total and then saving for a more powerful amp if you are unhappy.

Most shops that sell kicker sell the grills too...I paid $20 for the 12" versions a few years ago.
