Default WOW!!!

So a buddy of mine comes over this week that I knew from off the radio. I had him stick the bird meter in line to see how many watts I was putting out. Numbers came back looking really good. He says to me, " I can make it even better if you want me to." I was like hell yea. So he sticks a meter on my power supply and it comes up 13.45v, he goes "wow its still a virgin!!" I was like What?!?! He opens the case and turns looks at it, did some adjustment buts the lid back on and hooks the meter to it and now I got 15.15v coming out of my Astron 35 amp power supply!!! I gained a extra 50 bird watts out of it.

So what was your output before you gained the 50 watts?
