I bumped the gains on the LL's up to max, 2.6 volts and I could max my volume all 17 clicks and never get the clip light to come on.
I've since dropped it to 2.0 volts and that's with the radio pegged at 17 clicks.
What you see in the above video is 17 clicks on the radio, output at the RCA jack reads 2.0 (with 1k test tone). Also I have bridged my amp so it's pushing 200 watts to each speaker

I tried to do a test video in the garage but it's seriously ear splitting loud, I had ot move the phone mic away as I was getting crackling because I was to close (that's why i move away quickly in the above video )

Pretty amazing. If I were only running two speaker in front on the 4180 I just ordered. I would have gone with the ARC Moto 602s for sure! I'm hoping the Titan 7.1s do me justice after hearing this. Damn.

The BT7.1's are very good speakers, you won't be disappointed. The main difference is the 602's have more bass.

at stock settings (as shipped) the LL's would only allow me to get to 13/14 clicks before the clip light on my amp would come on. That was my 0.6 volt reading post.
I bumped the gains on the LL's up to max, 2.6 volts and I could max my volume all 17 clicks and never get the clip light to come on.
I've since dropped it to 2.0 volts and that's with the radio pegged at 17 clicks.

So with these settings you posted did you check the output voltage on the amp?
If you did what we're your readings.
BTW your system sounds good brother.
