 ALC is adjustable but it is recommended to just set your per band drive level for desired output.  You can set the ALC thresholds fairly high to not allow ALC to affect 
your output unless under extreme condx.

 This may have been discussed already, but just wanted to confirm.

I had a number of questions, but I'll condense them into a few:  

How are the KPA-1500 power LEDs/display calibrated at the factory, and what equipment is used to do the calibration?

Second, in the case of using the amp with K3 and the KPAK3AUX cable, is there a point where ALC kicks in and decreases power output?

Thank you!
