I do have a question though, when setting the gain with an o scope, do you set it with the knob at min, max or disconnected? And why?

Thanks for the comments guys!!! And you have to use both. I would start with the knob disconnected, that will give you your course setting, and then connect the knob to really fine tune it and get just a "soft" clip.

you leave it off or you can turn it all the way up,

if its like sundown, the remote gain wont let you turn the gain up past the gain set on the actual amp,

also that video is the same for strapping Sundown amps, except from having a master slave switch.

for the connection rca on sundowns, the master gets signal through the input rca, puts out signal on the BR out rca output, and the Slave gets signal connected through the BR in rca input.

Yeah that is correct Tony. Same for aq as far as the limit with the gain knob you can't really add any more gain. And what is funny to me is on the gain knob it says bass control, so people think it is a bass boost knob.
