Posted June 14, 200718 yr Where did the gain setting tutorial go? I've searched everywhere and can't find it now. Can someone link me to it plz.
June 14, 200718 yr Author I was trying to find the one that was on here, talking about why it's basically stupid to set it with a dmm.
June 14, 200718 yr Yeah, just use your ears. If you can't tell that the bass is too loud, or too soft...WTF are you buying car audio chit for?lol.Us Arkansans gotsta stick together.

What you talkin bout Willis?A DMM is useful IF you have an occiliscope...or if you're using two amps to drive ONE speaker. Otherwise, just use your ears.If your ears don't work, and you can't tell if the subs are too loud or too soft...or you cant determine that you have to crank the HU to get any real output...you need more help than a DMM can give you.

I do it by ear.How do YOU do it? And more importantly, why?

June 15, 200718 yr I know the post you mean...but I couldn't find it either. Looked around for almost 5 whole minutes!Really did look...If I find it later I'll post it.
June 15, 200718 yr Author Nope not that one. May be it was on a different site, but I could have swore it was on this one, I can't find it though. Not a big deal, I was just wanting to show it to someone. Thanks for helping though.
