What brand of battery do you use?
-
Red DD-1 means very little. Is it a regular DD-1, or a DD-1 plus?
It is not uncommon for a HU to reach max volume with no distortion, but given that it took a while for the signal light to light up, I'd imagine that some settings on the HU need to be adjusted in order to provide a higher signal level.
Lastly, batteries can sometimes have good voltage but take a shit under load. Start the tuning process all over with a fresh Duracell or Energizer battery. If you havent already, email [email protected], they'll help you out for sure

Order: 1000016553
Been waiting for this to be released for a while as I have on several occasions wished I hadn’t gotten rid of my original one. But happy to be adding it back to the arsenal.
I think I bought your original? Which i still have. Let me know when you want it back and I'll trade you for the new one 😜

The owners manual product tells you.

If you retune amps to a lower "max" HU volume, then you really arent changing anything as far as power being output by the amps, and will still experience the sound issue with your tweeters. Have you tried removing the extra tweeter pair? You may find that the extra set is just too much and the "breaking up" is just how harsh the high freqs are with two pair of tweets.

It takes no time at all to set gains with DD-1. Just do it anyways, just for peace of mind to know you are correctly set up in a new vehicle.

I dont believe they have a sale going on. They typically announce sales a few days before the holiday. Next sale should be 4th of july I believe, unless they decide not to.

Never would have thought of that mixture to remove crappy deadened. If I ever have to remove my SoundQubed Q-Mat, I'll keep that in mind. I only put that stuff on the doors luckily. Second skin everywhere else once i learned

DD-1 doesnt care about the load you present the amp, it only measures distortion in the signal. A lower resistant load will not cause distortion. If you are concerned with overpowering, then either exercise volume control or dial the gain back some
-
Steve Meade has videos documenting what each of his products does and how to use them properly. Look up his YouTube channel or look around this forum for them.
It should be fine on the home amp as long as there is a way to connect to the DD-1.
-
The plus allows a more precise overlap setting than the regular DD-1. The regular, you're limited to what comes on the disc, or any other specific overlap tones you may get from another source (such as a thread on this forum). The plus shows you exactly what overlap you are setting to in .1 increments.

Ok so it's common for the distortion light to flicker? What about the 40hz light fading when I turn down gain when verifying it's a distortion flicker
The 40hz detect is fading because your signal is fading

Ok what about the false positive distortion lights is this normal with the dd1
Flickers are ok, but if it goes on and stays on then you are seeing a distorted signal.

I am on duty today, but I'll try to remember to check my AMM-1 tomorrow when I get home, if no one gets you an answer by then
-
Not gonna lie, I'm curious how this would sound.
-
What are the settings on the HU when you test it? It only has 2v preouts, and in my experience, you MIGHT get half of that on the -5dB track without the "sub level" being maxed out (which would in turn cause the amp to distort prior to max volume. Not that HU, but my 80PRS. Low input voltage =high amp gain to match

I remember reading on the forums that the new DC5K can't be strapped with the older models.
He kinda has the inside scoop on all things DC. I would take his word for it. I doubt he would recommend something to harm his own product.
Battery recommendation
in XS Power Batteries / Chargers! (and other stuff too)

Measure the dimensions of your battery (xs power oem applicator says it's a group 75, which they dont offer) and find one of theirs that matches or just slightly smaller in dimensions, but meets the requirements for cranking amps if you want to go with XS.
