Amp Amplifier
How do i correctly measure a car amplifier's voltage output? What does the amp's bass boost do with voltage?

According to a chart that i printed out it gave me the voltage output that i should be getting when i play a 60hz song at 4 ohms and 125 RMS (the max of my amp per channel). Well when i measured the amplifier output (it is CEA 2006 certified) it was only 17 when it was supposed to be at 24.6 or something. Well i put up the bass boost from 0DB to 6 DB and instantly it popped up to 25, then i put it up to 12 and it was like 31 or 32. So my question is what does the bass boost do, is it tricking the voltmeter, am i gonna blow my subs from moving up the bass boost? The chart i have says 250 watts RMS is equal to 31.62 volts so if my subs are 150 RMS will that make them blow from the bass boost?

The bass boost throws more power at the sub... so yes it makes sence that it is going up... be careful as the bass boost can double an amps power if you turn it up ann the way but here is the bad thing.... 9 times out of 10 its a clipped signal (not good) If you really want the bass boost on I would just leave it at 3 to 4 dBs no more.

Good Luck
