The volume is only at 45 out of 62... I was setting my gain at 45 because at 48 it "sounds" like its distorting on the 40hz track. Track 1 Dude... your fucking lost....Read your manual. If you want to find where your HU makes noise at... you need to play both the 40hz tone and the 1k. Dude.. read that lil white paper that came with that THINGY you bought... This is not rocket science. .. I am reading it lol, I've read it over and over again. I do everything it says, don't get any signal light or anything even when maxed out. This is the case only when I'm just trying to see where my head unit distorts. Did you run BOTH tracks ?EDIT- if you dont get a SIGNAL.. then something is not right... period. Only tried the 40hz track because I don't get a signal light so why bother with the 1khz track. What could be wrong then? Coming right off the deck RCAs ? or are you look from the amp ? If off the deck, what RCA's did you use ? the sub out ?... are all RCA's open/full ?

Double edit - you NEED to get a signal indication before doing ANYTHING....

also if your "running off the deck amp" well, ill bet those will sound like shit.. compared to the low level....

Its only 6 pages in.... if you got bored.. Measuring a headunit only 1. This procedure will determine where the maximum unclipped volume setting of the headunit is. This is accomplished by setting the bass, treble, ect, to zero; and any EQs and crossovers in the headunit to flat. Later, when you set the amplifier gain(s); you can reset these to where you feel the customer will set them, or where you will set them for your own system. 2. Next you need to connect the DD-1 to the headunit’s outputs. Just plug the RCA outputs into the RCA input of the DD-1. If you are using speaker level outputs from the headunit, use the included harness. Red to speaker (+) and Black to speaker (-). 3. Play track 1 on test CD, turn the volume control up until you see the signal detect LED illuminate. 4. Continue turning up the headunit and you should see the 40Hz Detect LED illuminate. 5. Slowly continue turning up the headunit until the Distortion LED illuminates, then turn headunit down slowly until it goes out. Note the volume setting. 6. Next change the track to track 2. Repeat the steps 3-5 above, this time noting the 1kHz Detect LED. 7. Now take the noted maximum volume settings from the 40Hz test and the 1kHz test and average them. This is your maximum undistorted volume setting for the headunit.

EDIT- and what track are you using to find HU noise ?

Don't sweat it. People here can help. Cheers from over seas. Welcome to the forum.

wow... lol...

why ? have you blown it?.. nope.... your lost kid...... keep reading....and learning

I read the first sentence... and stopped.... what does any regulator have to do with idle output...... ? meh... im gonna go drink... more.

DC dont ever mark the coils (unless its for some one "special") anyway.. toss a meter on it... and that will only show you the DCR of the coil..

I dig some electrical talk... But.... you paid 300 bucks? for 16 feet ( what is that,.. one run?) of wire? (for 250amps, which im sure is half at load) You paid 300 bucks for a battery with 900cca? hows the amp hours? hell, you could have a d3100 for that, or a nice lil cap bank.... and buy breakfast....... What do i think of your un named 253 amp alt? ..... I think i need to sell you some shit.....

Steve? can you tell me what fasteners your using ????

wow, im shocked that not all the leads where not burnt up...... amazing........ (i still have my 3 year old original leads with a spaced spider.. ) Nice shit Meade...... Also, always a good vid with momma Meade in there......

That blue .........

cant even imagine what that cost... damn just to put a decent spider pack, and softies with a "coil" in it... damn...... wish i had money

Id use the HU cut off (if it has a nice, usable selection) , and run the amp at full ....

Got to meet Ben this year. very cool cat....

Psssshhh....pocket change!! Honestly that was so sick wish we would have been able to stay long enough to see it...good times! ya ? where da fuq did you go? i like talking/shooting the shit with you?!?! (and i struggle with that) Id like to chat with you more.... anyway... a great great time.......

looked like some got in Ray's hot dog........ was such a fun time....... edit... and Yeo is right there...... nice job by all... again, a killer time.

Wondering when you where gonna put these here. Dig it.
