I was pondering a few thoughts the other day after reading a few topics. The main one that concerned me was from a fellow competitor that I know and have met at a few shows. At first he started a thread about his sub getting hot and stinky on power that should not have even been a concern for the power that he was running, A few days after that he ended up blowing his amp. He has a good electrical, knows what he is doing and has plenty of competitors to hep him that are fairly close when or if he has and issues. I am NOT blaming STEVE or the DD-1, just would like a little more input on this question I'm gonna ask. I have the DD-1 and CC-1 and plan to use them. He and some other fellow competitors set their system using the DD-1, I'm pretty sure he was the only one that had issues. I then remembered he was running his amp @.5ohm so my question is:
When using the DD-1 since the subs woofers are not connected how does the DD-1 know where a clean signal is when running an amp at less than 1 ohm. Also if an amp like most kicker amps makes most of there power @2ohms would it defect for the clean signal @1ohm and then when you used it since you would be running it @2ohms would you technically be getting less power since you up the ohm load from where it was set?
Sorry if this is retarded question and doesn't make sense. I was just thinking and trying to come up with an answer for myself but I couldn't so I thought I'd ask the pros. I just can't think how it knows what ohm load it should set itself at.
