    The thing measuring voltage is a oscope.

    What impedance are …
    What impedance are you looking at wiring the amplifier to?

  • elementaldesigns:

    What particular amp …
    What particular amp is a 400w amplifier.

    Ideally resistors. In this case we’re using resistors.

    what impedance is the amplifier @?

  • elementaldesigns:

    Ac = Alternating …
    Ac = Alternating current. If your measuring DC your amp is not working. Music = AC.

    40v is really just for the power being used on this amp. This is just a example.

    The videos are meant to help you along with understanding. Not do it for you :) Get your hands dirty. Google a bit.

    Those must be some hella big resistors.

    Don’t normal radioshack resistors only have like a 1/2 watt resistance?

    Thank you for this video. I never properly knew how to set the gain.
