you are correct if i was to run each amp as a single setup but when u strap the master controls both amps .
If the technology of that specific amplifier is like that, where you set all settings on master amp than yes, leave the slave alone. I lokoed past that fact when I was explaining. I was thinking of using 2 non strappable amplifiers to gain match.
i appreciate u trying to help and trying to be respect full here but u obviously have never used amps strapped because all of the ones i have seen work like what i described the master will control the slave ( this is not my amplifier specific ) dc, sundown,dd,ampere audio,crescendo etc
also i do not wish to experiment or assume i would rather have somebody that has actually used the dd-1 on a strapped setup post from experience .
thanks
