We tried the gain up at "5" and my wife was complaining about how loud the turn signal indicators were. We settled at "3" and it seems to be the sweet spot for getting some more power to the speakers, but not an overly loud turn signal indicator.
I stopped procrastinating, went into the garage and switched my tweeters to -3db, definitely took the edge off. I have a Match 7DSP amp and it's strong so this should allow me to increase the volume w/o pain. I need to tune the DSP since I didn't get presets for it from Audiotech other than channel mapping.

Re increased indicators, once I set the sound level for them to the minimum (car/settings/sound/...)they don't bother me, in fact I can't hear them over the music...lol.
