Torres Posted July 23, 2008 Author Report Posted July 23, 2008 Are you taking + reading from 1 amp and -reading from the other amp? you did not forget the speaker wire between amps did you?the wires were on. is that how it goes? even tho both negatives on one amp are connected to the other? cuz i dont think i tested it that way
assman Posted July 23, 2008 Report Posted July 23, 2008 just set it to 5/8 gain and be done with it. Assman IdustriesFear The DuckTeam Notoriously Loud Mafia

DC POWER
EricR Posted July 23, 2008 Report Posted July 23, 2008 just set it to 5/8 gain and be done with it. lmao i was thinking leave the 12 sitting in the box in the hole and duck tape from the bottom of the sub to the bottom of the baffle so the sub doesnt free air. would that work?
Torres Posted July 23, 2008 Author Report Posted July 23, 2008 Are you taking + reading from 1 amp and -reading from the other amp? you did not forget the speaker wire between amps did you?still no solid reading. wouldnt read above 95 volts. then i heard the amp buzzing. gain went all the way up. used bass boost to see if i could get a higher reading and i didnt
Torres Posted July 23, 2008 Author Report Posted July 23, 2008 grrr on sec i gotta download the new adobe reader

Torres Posted July 23, 2008 Author Report Posted July 23, 2008 Measure voltage from Master + to Slave + when strapped (slave + is the load negative).that's the first way i did it. maybe i have a cheap meter? i'll try it again tho
sundownz Posted July 23, 2008 Report Posted July 23, 2008 Unloaded AC voltage readings aren't always the best either - hook it up to the speakers and use an AC current clamp / AC volt meter at a known impedance (since you have voltage and current you know that). - Jacob Fuller - Owner, Sundown Audio - Sundown Audio on FACEBOOK - Please DO NOT PM ME -- use my email address -- [email protected]
