rfbasshead Posted October 23, 2016 Author Report Share Posted October 23, 2016 gain at like 6-7 out of 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RainStryke Posted October 23, 2016 Report Share Posted October 23, 2016 gain at like 6-7 out of 11 A lot of amplifier's i've set with the DD-1 and seen set with the DD-1 start clipping after about 30-40% gain... it's likely you were clipping bad and finally it gave out.

Broke_Audio_Addict Posted October 24, 2016 Report Share Posted October 24, 2016 You were clipping it to death. That being said a lot of people's definition of "music" is a clipped 30 hz sine wave with some 80 IQ knuckle head grunting about committing crimes and his genitals.

audiofanaticz Posted October 24, 2016 Report Share Posted October 24, 2016 Talk radio. Not the first time I have heard of this. I don't know why exactly. I forget the exact term but it is like old recordings that have little to no bass. This. I know what your talking about but I do not recall it 100% It has to do with how Class D amps work with the output being a high frequency square wave output that is pwm controlled by the input signal of somewhere around 500Khz or higher. When the input is seeing no signal the amp is going nuts trying to sample the signal that is not there so its trying to compensate for that signal and boost it higher and overworks itself until the amp either blows or your fuse blows from to much current draw (whichever comes first). Due to the crossover limits on the amp you never hear these high pitched frequencies being played either. It kind of goes back to what Nick at Fi (ndmstang) always said about amps literally microwaving tinsel leads and catching fire.. I had this problem over and over with my pair of American Bass 150.1 amps. Just turning the volume down to 0 in the drive through while I ordered and got my food caused the amps to blow up. Was not bumping hard prior to turning it down just a moderate level, voltage was all good, as well as everything else. Leave the drive thru and turn it up a little and there is no bass, go to the trunk and nothing but smoke. Now I put my monoblocks on a switch to turn them off when I dont need them being played.
