Great unit...same one I have. Yes 4V...and goes all the way to max volume without distortion. Use a MM or Oscilloscope, 32 volume using a 1k test tone/bike running, I would set both front/rear channels to 23.6v. Put the amp to F and use the decks built in cross over to set Hipass to 60hz both front & back. Adjust to your liking from there but that should sound fabulous.

I assure you it will...highway speeds will now have more volume if need be.

Just the polks playing...everything else disconnected. 175w crossed at 60hz. I had the Neo's back there previously...the Neo's are definitely "louder" but there not warm at all...with a DSP the Neo's might be good...but without a DSP, the Polks are pretty spectacular. I must admit, when I removed them from the box, next to my Yellow Baskets and PRV 6MR500CF, these things felt like cheap plastic.
