I put this in here also because more of the people that would know the answer would be in this forum.

I don't currently have access to a o-scope was hoping someone knew what voltage to set the gains to on this amp. I will have them strapped at .7ohm and 18V. Also is there a specific way to set them when strapped?

I was also wondering if you only use the controls on the master amp as well?

I had my gains at zero on all my amps.
I had a pretty high voltage going into them though.

I had mine running .7 strapped on 18 volts, but it is pretty dependant on impedance rise, etc.

We have run them as low as .25 per amp on a 12 volt application. You might get disappointing results running them that low though.

i have had mine at .25 ohms each amp strapped, at 17.6 volts, but you had to roll the volume up, at .35 ohms each amp when strapped i could burp them with no protections coming on
