I’ve been messing around with different gain settings on my zv5 using the dd1 great tool just wish it had a -7.5 dB overlap setting, and I know snowdrifter has a Dropbox for it I just don’t have a computer to rip it from and it won’t let me from the app on my phone. Besides the point -5db is not enough -10 it’s solid for most but clips on certain songs. And yes I could just turn the volume down or the knob when on certain songs.
my question is can I mark -5db and mark -10db on my amp and just put it half way in between -5 and -10 for -7.5? May be a stupid question but I can’t seem to find the answer I’m looking for searching for hours

Yeah that makes sense, could be in the middle visually but may be +or- 4-5 volts could make a difference. I mean you make a valid point due the fact I’m running a 2k rms zv5 with a skar 2k. If I run at -10db Close to full tilt for a while the amp runs hot. Even had to add 3 80mm fans to cool them. Granted it’s under the back seat of a Tahoe where airflow isn’t the greatest.
I would like to change a 3k to allow some headroom so it’s not running at its max potential.
