1.Adjust all amplifier input gain controls to just above minimum sensitivity (fully counterclockwise).
2.Using the cleanest source (CD), with music playing turn up the head unit until you can hear the music begin to distort. Now turn it down a bit until you cannot hear the distortion.
3.Increase the Amplifier gain (clockwise) until the onset of audible distortion. Then decrease the gain to the point just before the distortion starts. This setting minimizes background noise and prevents overload.
4.Repeat step 3 for any remaining amplifiers in the system.
