SINTORMAN

This will be my last post in this thread. coming on SMD and reading all this is... well exactly what I knew SMD to be rofl. You can reply to my comments but I won't see them. Have fun guys. PS have fun finding out things like how efficient your amps are or how much power your alt is producing with your amm1s, or repairing amplifiers and tracking down noise... oh wait... lol.

Just found something that I thought everybody would be interested in. Yesterday while Ben (SINTORMAN) was in this thread trolling, check out what he wrote on a Colorado Car Audio Facebook Group: This is a thread about clamping power at a competition.... Interesting that on an SMD forum he's going through every effort to push a complicated clamping solution that involves everything except an SMD product. On the same night, on a FB group, he appears to be OK with suggesting the AMM1. You'll notice earlier I said: I have nothing wrong with the amm1. Just a problem with people misusing equpiment. Then someone said that a amm1 is cheaper than a proper clamping setup. I corrected them. And I recommended the amm1 because I can trust myself watching the meters to record the right numbers but I'm not going to trust someone else running the meters. Hence why I also recommended the vital power device. I'm glad TeamHT fits in good over here. I was hoping he would fit in somewhere lol. EDIT:.. yeah I'm on that page to troll.. moron. I also rescinded my comment about the amm1. Since I believe it will stop measuring when clipping sets in. So obviously no good for comps.

I'm going to assume this is aimed at me. And that is very wrong. My first real setup even broke a 45 rofl. If you are going to make accusations you might want to be able to back them up.

I understand what he is saying as well, just giving him a hard time. Jokes aside, even if that setup worked, you would then know how many VA your amplifier can put out into a bucket of concrete. Still wouldn't tell you how many Watts your amplifier puts into your SPEAKERS say what? That's exactly what your dyno does. Uses a purely resistive load to measure power output in watts.... Last time I checked a coil of wire is an Inductor, not a resistor. I think you are confusing it with this http://www.rexresearch.com/davis/davis.htm Oh snap Tony doesn't know what bifilar winding is. rofl. it's as close as you can get to a completely resistive load with magnet wire.

yes but that in itself says the amp dyno doesn't matter since it's not connected to a real load rofl. And I doubt he would want people to think his dyno results are meaningless. he was comparing the amm-1 vs your concrete bucket.. the ad-1 has no part in this thread funny how it's in the title of this thread. But if he wants to say that non resistive load scores are worthless than this dyno is pointless. Sorry but you can't have the cake and eat it too.

This is SMD, not CACO. And no. The only thing you do continually is prove the only moron here is you. You stated the equipment was misused, which you failed to answer. Now you're saying the test was flawed. There are a couple points you can take from this test and depending how you look this test is NOT flawed. Surprisingly since your tune is changed, not so anti SMD right now...makes sense with the bandwagon mentality from someone who couldn't get loud if his life depended on it. Reading what someone else says is NOT intelligence. Care to provide some insight into the actual clamp method? Care to repeat your senseless ramblings? Care to provide your own factual information? God you're a fool I know you are pretty retarded but maybe I'm giving you too much credit. The scope is approaching a full clip on the screen. Anyone clamping with a scope wouldn't allow that to happen unless they were as smart as you probably.

double post

I only have an account on here to look at the classifieds occasionally. Really don't care if I'm banned. Caco is my home. No the truth is you're against anything with the SMD name. You have stated and proved this MANY times over, I do find it funny you're here though. How was any equipment misused? Or do you need your electrical engineering friends to fight the argument for you as well? You again. I thought I blocked you. rofl. If you can't see why this test is flawed you are a moron.

See now this to me is where it gets interesting. Now since you are posting a cheaper alternative people have choices. From the clamp tests I've seen people do it's a dmm and clamp, this is my first time seeing a scope or true rms meter for such a low price. Still comes into factor of how well the user can see clipping on the scope.It would be nice to see a comparison of equipment like what sintorman posted and the amm1. Take a look at that scope and tell me you think it will be accurate. http://www.electricstuff.co.uk/velleman_hps140.html Everything has its place and if they are used right the results will be true, but if you use cheap equipment or use it in the wrong way you will get inaccurate results. It's only cheap because it uses 1 channel and can't measure high frequencies.. something that doesn't apply in the car audio industry. It's a damn good scope for the money. You should be listening to what I'm saying.. I could save you a lot of money. But nah you should just listen to the mfg for the dyno and amm1.. he's not biased at all. ROFL. Tony props to you. Laughing all the way to the bank. Look here im a grown ass man, i don't have to listen to you. who the hell are you. How many tools have you brought to the market. You also don't have to worry about saving me any money. I worked for my money and i will spend it the way i see fit.. Plain and simple get a name for your self first, then maybe we would start listening to you. I would listen to an engineer before i listen to a nobody. Just because you don't know who I am doesn't mean you can't use common sense. Typical CA guy here. Oh man if he's not hitting a 160 then he's just an idiot. You are what's wrong with the industry. You rely on people to get your answers without using your damn head and actually learning why things happen the way they do etc..

You should be listening to what I'm saying.. I could save you a lot of money. But nah you should just listen to the mfg for the dyno and amm1.. he's not biased at all. ROFL. Tony props to you. Laughing all the way to the bank.

Load banks can also be made cheap with voicecoil wire and bifilar winding submerged in concrete... That's like 50 bucks tops. Have fun spending thousands on tools when a little know how can save you a lot of money.

Velleman HPS140I 99$ Craftsmen clamp meter 72$ Fluke 113 true rms meter 116$ Sorry just under 300$ and you can clamp your amps power for efficiency as well as many other tasks you can do with these three items vs the AMM1.

I'm not against the amm1.. Seems like a neat tool. However I am against people making videos misusing equipment and praising the equipment that was used properly. It's just low.
