  3. My DD-1

    in SMD Distortion Detector (DD-1) Topics

    Posted

    SMD DD-1 this is my review that o posted on CACO and i caught alot of Flack on it but I think it helped alot of people 2

    --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Man I just got my SMD DD-1 yesterday !!

    and let me tell you this thing is Awesome !!

    http://wccaraudio.com/smd-distortion-detector-dd-1.html

    you can get them here at the Introductory price still$139(this price will be going up soon ) or check Craig's list there are people that will level your system for you for like 20-25 $ is what I have seen on the Internet

    This thing works on factory systems, or aftermarket systems with or with out additional amps in the setup.

    By "clip point" I mean at the point of Distortion .

    #1 If you are running the factory set up this will work for you to find the clip point of your system

    #2 If you are a aftermarket deck and you are just using the deck to power your system doors and rear deck this will work for you 2 to find the clip point.

    #3 If you are running a full aftermarket system from 100w RMS to 15,000w RMS you will be able to find your clip point on your deck and amps so your system will be leveled and amp gains will be set like a PRO !!

    Now on to my Review

    I got it yesterday and read the manual in about 10 min and I was going to wait until this weekend when i could have a friend help but I could not wait to see if it would make a difference with my set up .

    so to start you do deck first to find that clip point and then you can do the rest of the system after that .

    Now I always thought before I did this that my ear was good and I am a IASCA SQ judge so I thought my clip point was around 38/50 (and it was)well after using the DD-1 and there set up disk exactly how they tell you and tweaking the settings on the deck it is now 45/50 so thats a +#1 right there. Now I know if I turn it up to 46 I will be clipping the deck. (good to know for comps 45 is my magic number )

    next you do the full Chanel amp or amps depending on your set up.

    Its Super easy to do you just leave you deck on there settings.(flat)

    Then you unhook the speaker leads but leave the RCA's in and they tell you what tracks to use on there disk. Turn you gains all the way down.Turn your deck it up to your magic # (45 in my case ) play the track your suppose to (they have Sq and Spl tracks depending what you want your system to do)And slowly turn up the gain until you see the clipping indicator light come on and then you turn it down a little until the light stays off. DONE !! once again you have properly set the amp like a Pro !! Repeat if you have a 4 Chanel or more amps for mids and highs.

    And for the sub amp or amps you do the same play the tracks they tell you to depending if you are doing the Sq or Spl and you are Done !!

    now just plug everything back in and you system is leveled like a Pro !!

    Then you can set your crossover points and tune it by ear or with a RTA and know that your system sounds the best it possibly can . NO CLIPPING or DISTORTION in the system...

    On my car I wont know for sure until I hit a TL but I can defiantly feel more pressure. Like I may have gained a couple of DB it is Defiantly better than it was on the Spl setting on the DQXS and my SQ on the DQXS is even more amazing .I was just so you all know running about 3/16 gain on the mids and highs before starting this . now I am running 3/8 on the highs and 1/4 on the mids and I was running 1/8 on the subs and now 5/16 on the subs so all good changes.

    BUT like I said I thought I had a good ear for setting up a system UNTIL today LOL order #260

    i couldnt help it, i had to go see what you are talking about.

    first of all, GREAT REVIEW from the O.P.

    second, those douchebags are calling it a commercial.....well he is a happy customer who paid full price, and i dont even know who he is other then a screen name online. He is happy, he made a post about it, and now a few idiots cant handle that this device is the truth. I dont feel like getting into it but i will tell you this, 95% of the people badmouthing this product and recommending a scope instead, DONT EVEN HAVE A SCOPE and wouldnt know what to do with it if they did have one.

    what it comes down to is this, most people who are talking shit just dont like ME. Almost guaranteed to be disgruntled, banned members of this forum or my youtube channel. A few of those guys have their head so far up their own ass they can check the back side of their teeth for tarter.

    this product works and so far we have 100% positive feedback on it....and MANY from professional installers not just professional forum trolls. :pardon:

    Man Steve it was me and let me first say I hope have not said anything that was not true I posted it on 3 of the 4 forums I am actively on - this one because we all know about it And my one on Caco has caused some drama .It was my honest review of the DD-1 I did pay full price and I did not even get a signed one and I waited the full wait time (7weeks ).it was my unbiased review of your product .I say that because boy I have been accused of everything you could think of and like I told them for me it is no different than saying I am a hardcore dewalt fan or a chevy fan boy ect. I buy products that work and this worked for me. I don't do allot of reviews on products unless I truly believe in them and I have seen a noticeable result. I hope I did not misrepresent you or you product in any way Bro.I have tried hard to hold my self the highest of levels in all of my responses and help people where I could. And if you get some sales from it that's cool with me man I 2 am a small business owner and and anything I can do to help a brother out!

    Feel free to pm me if You want.

    I don't worry about the little people that talk crap most of them have cracked a windshield or 2 with the 142 db systems lol know a guy that has lol

    Thanks again for everything and a super product

    Your friend

    Looks good man, looks pretty clean, good job. Don't get discouraged, people just dislike Kicker around here.

To each there own on the kicker side of things i like them just fine my self but i know that there are a lot of jerks that have kicker and think it is the best thing sence sliced bread foe me they do what i want .I have done 90% of the install my self and I compete in IASCA and usaci and I am doing good in SQ and I have done some Spl runs
