    Well I received mine this week, today was the first chance I got to use it. Using the 0db tracks my kenwood headunit went to a 32 out of 35 with sub volume at +7 with no distortion. I wanted to make my volume ceiling at 28 ( I had been stopping at 26 or 27) which leaves me some room for older quieter music. I listened to the -5 and -10db 40hz tracks and compared it to some of the bass cds I have and I decided to use the -5db track. I dont turn up the sub volume or use any bass boost when the head unit volume is high, So I set sub volume at 0 Head unit at 28 and went on to the kicker zx1500.1 As with most I set it originally by ear and I had it at about one click before 12 o'clock. After testing with the DD1 I discovered that I could turn my amp 4 clicks higher to about the One o'clock position with no distortion. So I went and tried it out, OMG I cant believe the difference !!

    Steve M. and Tony D. thanks so much! :yahoo:

    I bought a ZX1500.1 and a ZX650.4 this year, they will get hot when its 90 degrees outside but in the evenings you can run them pretty hard and they will barely get warm. They have been the best amps I have owned so far, Good luck with it.
