  1. Freaking nuts lol. And, putting that VM-1 on the 12v rails is a sweet idea. Will really show what your power supply can do. I remember when I was in my computer service technician class we learned about uninteruptible power supplies and how they help stabalize the voltage lag and spikes that can occur in 120v home electricity. Great way to test that would be with what you are doing.
  2. Dude that article looks dope! Would love to actually read it, don't know if that magazine is out here though in Chicago. I am jealous to say that I heard you play that rage song. I can only imagine how amazing that song sounds on that component set!
  3. He is planning on getting a new HU. He has already looked up on other people keeping the Navi and replacing the stock stereo. I am just trying to get a fix for the short term of having his amp tuned. I guess the best will happen though once he actually gets a new HU.
  4. lmao way out of the question. Maybe he might do that later on, but right now he just wants his gains for some bump hahahahahha
  5. Anyone got any suggestions for them? I was going to take another stab at it this weekend and see what I could do. I will talk to him about it then.
  6. I can try a new battery, I really have no idea what a good voltage for one is so it's past me. That is really unfortunate what you said about the LOC's. I am sure my DD-1 is not broken, it previously tuned my amps. What I will do is hook up a spare amp and test the DD-1 on it. Just in case that my DD-1 is bad, I don't screw up my gains on my daily amp.
  7. Sweeeeeeeeeeeeet! This is going to be a awesome build to watch. I am sorry if I missed it, but how do you plan to achieve your 160+? Burp, Music? Just curious, 160+ on some music would be frakkkin shhhaaaweeeettttttt. lol
  8. They where only variable, I had the SSF set to as low as can go, and the HP to as high as it could go. He actually had the variable bass boost on, I am guessing that's why it sounded louder. I turned it off lol. He did mention he thinks the LOC is off of the 6x9 on the rear deck, but there is no crossovers built into the speakers, or in the HU, that wouldn't effect anything right with the signal?
  9. The one I have is resting at 8.4v, time for a new one?
  10. I went to use the DD-1 on a friends car with really bad results. No matter what I did, checking the HU for clipping, and the amp, always had distortion on. No matter the gain setting, nor the volume. The vehicle is a Acura TL with stock stereo and navi, with a LOC going to a Addictive Audio 100.1D. I first tried to use the DD-1 to get a clipping limit on the HU, which the instant the probe hit the pos terminal, it got distortion. I even tried to "set" the gains, without setting them, just to see if the light would come on the same as it did before. Sure enough, on the 0DB test tone the instant the prob touched I got distortion. It was weird though, when I used the -5 tone, the distortion light came on again, but not as strong. And then with the -10, the light didn't even come on at all. And the light came on how I said it did per tone, no matter the gain setting or the volume on the HU. The signal and 40hz detect would come on how it normally does, but the distortion was always constant. Anyone got any info here? Feel kind of shitty because I reset this guys gains and ended up not coming through with my tool. I set his amp the old way with a DMM, backing off the rating it said it was supposed to be at to be safe and he said it was much quiter than what it used to be. Would like to get his amp set right and have a happy friend lol
  11. It may make it easier, but it can still be applied at low temperatures.
  12. Really Steve, this is the first time I've ever seen someone do something like this. It's really cool to say the least. My hopes go out to those that are no longer with us, I know I've seen a few go while I have been here. As for the person who asked about cfizzy. I thought I remember him getting butt hurt over something and leaving.
  13. now exactly what would that achieve between the different tones?

  15. wasnt that with a unsealed trunk? And I believe you had no deadening. that bitch rattled so damn bad.
  16. please do. I reallly like AQ and would love to see what their products actually do.
  17. If you use a ipod, you remove the files off the CD in lossless format. To keep the best quality possible. Then use them on your ipod. It is what I did, and I have not seen any problems.
