milesmiles Posted April 13, 2009 Report Posted April 13, 2009 Does the amp gain increase output linearly (i.e. if I have a 250 watt amp and I turn the gain up halfway, it will output 125 watts)? I need to know because I have a 150 watt RMS sub but a 250 watt amp, and I don't want to push the sub too hard. Thanks guys.
Torres Posted April 13, 2009 Report Posted April 13, 2009 it doesnt work like that. if it did, then everyones gains would be up full blast, which is definitely not the case. it depends on the output of your RCA's. basically the higher the voltage on your RCA's, the less you have to turn the knob.

Or if you dont trust yourself then turn the gain down from where it should be. 91' Jeep Cherokee - The Heep Just Empty Every Pocket 96' Volvo 960 - The B◘x [sPL_4_U] HiFonics - Alpine Pioneer - Clarion Infinity - Kicker KnuKonceptz
