Masterbasser Posted June 6, 2016 Report Share Posted June 6, 2016 Ok so as far as gain matching amps this is how i udnerstand about doing it I play a test tone on the deck and set the gains with a dmm on the speaker outputs and match the voltage reading. now heres my question. Can i set them at a low volume and gain match them? where i live i cant be doin loud ass burps or anything Do i need the subwoofers hooked to the amp to gain matc the amps? Right now i have the 2 amps set under clipping using track 3 on smd dd-1, surely this is not gain matched though considering they are same brand amps but 1 is a newer version with slightly different internals then the other 1 Kenwood excelon ddx795 3 370 amp CES alternators (audio side only) McLaren dome tweeters Crescendo 6.5 ultra neos NVX JAD800.4 4 PA x4 SPL 18's 4 Digital Designs m5's at .7 ohms each 2 K2 80 ah lithiums 3 group 31 agms Ledglow million color (12 piece) 2007 Yukon xl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShadeTreeMechanic Posted June 6, 2016 Report Share Posted June 6, 2016 The gain match would be done with the subs unhooked with a DMM and a 60hz tone. Set them up with the DD1 and then match them by turning the high one down to match the low one. 91 C350 Centurion conversion ( Four Door One Ton Bronco) 250A Alternator (Second Alternator Coming Soon) G65 AGM Up Front / Two G31 AGM in Back Pioneer 80PRS CT Sounds AT125.2 / CT Sounds 6.5 Strato Pro component Front Stage CT Sounds AT125.2 / Lanzar Pro 8" coax w/compression horn tweeter Rear Fill FSD 5000D 1/2 ohm (SoundQubed 7k Coming Soon) Two HDS315 Four Qubes Each 34hz (Two HDC3.118 and New Box Coming Soon) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Masterbasser Posted June 6, 2016 Author Report Share Posted June 6, 2016 exactly what I had planned just wasn't sure if it could be done with subs unhooked. should the gain be matched at full tilt volume setting? or any volume is fine? I'm guessing whatever volume I play it at the most?

Jessica Posted June 6, 2016 Report Share Posted June 6, 2016 you can use the 40hz tone you set your gains with at the volume you set your gains with. Much more simple, no subs hooked up.
