I would say if you change the battery and get the same results, you should be able to at least go 3/4 volume at the head unit. There could just be an anomaly at that volume, just enough to tweek the sound wave and set the DD-1 off. The LOC you're using doesn't have any type of gain or level control does it?

I would say the DD-1 it's superior, and it can detect very minute signs of distortion, not just clipping. But I do find out hard to believe your stock head unit is clean all the way up. It's possible, but not probable. This might sound obvious and stupid, but change the battery in the unit to a strong, named brand battery. It's been the issue with problems with the DD-1 more times than I can count. Though it doesn't necessarily seem like you're having a problem with the DD-1 itself. You're head unit might just be pretty good. What kind of LOC are you using?

Hella dope!

Been trying to find an empty battery case for my battery relocation and can never find one! Lol

Fake it 'till you make it!

I'll be honest with you....I haven't read the owner's manual yet🤣🤣 it's just sitting in my closet..... waiting

Different speakers and electrical equipment (head units, amplifiers) react differently to different tones. That's why some people when setting their gains will use a couple different tones. What I'm going to do when I figure out my max volume for my head unit and while setting the gain and max volume for my in dash processor is I'm going to send both the 1000 and the 40 hz tone through it and whichever distorts at a lower setting is going to be where I set my gains on my amplifiers. Say I get a max volume of 30 with the 1000 hz test tone but get a max of 28 with the 40 hz test tone, I'm not going past 28

Track 1 is 1000 hz and track 2 is 40 hz right?

Yeah, that's going to look super clean with not being able to see the plastics or the carpet. Like an infinity pool... but a subwoofer box..... infinity enclosure!

F*ck*ng beautiful! Are you f*ck*ng kidding me! Damn! Just wow! Real talk, just...... wow

Also, if you didn't, I would try both test tones (40 hz and 1000 hz) through your head unit and see if you get different max volumes. Then just use the lower one. It doesn't always happen, but sometimes it does

Yeah, not saying 100% that's the issue, but it has been so many times. If it's not, I'm sure you figured out your max volume at your head unit?

This may sound stupid, but change the batteries to some new, good name brand batteries. I've seen this work so many times, it's always the first thing I suggest when there's a problem with a DD1 or CC1

Can't wait to see it. I LOVE the Cadillac logo. Wish I could afford one. This is going to look dope!

So beautiful with those subs in. Can't wait to see them all.... I'm not too proud to admit those pictures gave me a chubby! Lol

So damn dope! Happy anniversary! I hope my wife and I can make it to 26 years. 🍻

That is going to look so fresh!

Damn! Check out the asses on those! Beefy mofos!

I'm going to go out on a limb here and say that's going to sound pretty damn good!

Dude, that's way too clean. I can't do anything but look at it and shake my head.

That's bad ass! No particular reason behind it, and not that it matters at all, but I'm a 12" guy. This build is going to be sick! Just out of curiosity, what impedance load will you be sending the amps? (I don't know the proper term for what I'm trying to ask, sorry lol) Will you strap them? Or just run 3 subs with the 2 channels bridged? Just curious how you'll be running those bad ass amps.

I can't guide toy through it as I have never used an oscilloscope, but for highs, people usually use 1000 hz tone to set the gain

It's happened to us all. The dreaded brain fart

Yessir

The 4 channel RCA's are 4 for head unit, 4 for amp. So, you should be able to use the 4 channel RCA's. The 2 front head unit outputs to channel 1 & 2, and the 2 rear head unit outputs to channel 3 & 4. Hopefully this drawing makes sense
