It will take a lot not to blow those sonys with that amp. The sonys i believe are 300rms and the amp is most likely 150x2 so unless there not wired right you can adjust all you want.

Don't ever look at cars as just imports or domestics. Just because a car is made in a certain country doesn't mean that it is anything like another car from that country. An example of this is Mitsubishi reliability, just because they are Japanese doesn't mean that they are as reliable as a Honda or Toyota.

Re: Whats a safe level to pound my subs

that amp is probably 600w peak.

which means 300w RMS if yo uare luckey

thoes subs are probably truely 400w RMS in the real world.

So, a fully clipped signal from that amp wont harm them.
