Disclaimer and take it for whats its worth as I have not bothered to read all of the articles just yet, but take the advice given on "setting your gains" at your own risk.

Reread it again, still find it presumptious, mainly because he is under the ASSumption that people are A) knowledgeable about car audio and amplifiers in the first place and B) that people understand what a "clipped" signal sounds like.

To tune blindly until YOU find the system loud enough is why most LOUD systems sound like shyt in the first place, nothing but distortion and barely intelligible lyrics, BUT DUDE IT HITS HARD CHECK ME OUT Y0!!!!

Loud without proper tuning (and frequency management) flat will not sound good, unless his version of what LOUD is is about 70% of what mine is ....

To each their own
