well yea u mean.......like if you had a high HU output voltage it would be to the left. and a lower preout voltage it would be to the right. .

iIt would be more to the right for lower volage from the HU.

and all the more to the left for a higher preout voltage from the HU.

Im gunna start confusing myself. lmao

If your HU is 2 volt, turn the gain to the 2 volt making. Match HU volts to amp gains.

Upload


Alternativly, Turn the gain all the way down, (Quite). Then turn the HU volume up to the maximum that you will ever turn it up. Like 3/4 or so. Then turn the gain clockwise till you reach the 2 volt mark, or you start to hear distortion. Tweek it back a hair and your set.
