Question about system (JLw3v2)

Hey guys, i have 2 12" w3v2 running off a JL 500/1 and i was wondering who else had the same set up and how much did you turn the gains up on the amp. Can someone show me wheres the max i can tune it up to, receiving best power without blowing the subs?

Thanks

The gain control is not a volume control. It is setup to match the output of the particular head unit you are using. Not all head units have the same pre-out voltage so that is the reason the gain on the amplifier is adjustable, this way you get the best signal to noise ratio possible with minimal distortion.

Check out the tutorial section at JL Audio's website. It will explain how to adjust your gains.
