Re: Help Setting Up Amps

The settings, gains, etc.

They are 4 Ohm speakers, the subs, sorry for the misinformation.

Re: Help Setting Up Amps

no one can really just tell you what to put your settings as. you just have to put a dvd or cd in and use your own ears to what sounds the best the way you like to play it. its pretty much like a personal thing.

Re: Help Setting Up Amps

id reccomend taking that setup to the nicest stereo shop in your town.. not the cheapest, and ask that they install the amps and tune them.

make sure someone tunes them that knows what to listen for... thats the best advice i can give you.
