[QUOTE="Bennett Prescott, post: 74742, member: 4"] Re: Emergency Amp Swap Kip, Dialing back the gain will not change how much power the mids can receive, it will just change how much drive level it takes to deliver that power. It will also mess up the tonality of your boxes. However, if you weren't blowing up the mid woofers before, you are no more likely to do it now. The increase in potential power is less than 3dB, and unless they were massively underpowered before the previous amp should have been just as capable of blowing them up. I would match actual gain and call it a day. If you had power limiters set before they can also stay at the same level. [/QUOTE]
