Re: **Amplifier Gain setting tutorial**
FOR THE SUB

There is a very quick way without the math to set your gain. First is set your equalizer the way you want it. Then turn your gain on your amp as low as it can go. Adjust your loudness on your cd player to the loudest you want your speakers powerd by your cd player to go, then slowly increase the gain of your amp untill it just starts to clip, then turn it back a hair. You have just set the gain. Very easy, but not as percise as mentioned above but for most people this is just fine.

The best way to set the gain is to have an osilloscope.
