Howdy,
I recently picked up the DD1 and CC1 combo. I am currently attempting to set gains on a new Synergy WFO2.1D . The head unit is a Kenwood DNX955S. I set everything flat and the subwoofer to zero (it maxes at 10 and goes to like -30). There is a bass knob involved as well. I set it at max and not at half. Once I set the gain if I go into the subwoofer setting and start to increase it the system starts to clip. I have the manual and read it and understand for the most part.
Here are some questions.
Is it better to set the gain with the bass knob disconnected and then add it back to the system and if so does that mean it will be set so that the max level on the knob is equal to the max level just set by the dd1 on the amp ?
When setting everything flat and putting the sub woofer to zero. Is it assumed that I will never adjust those and they should stay at those setting for optimal performance?
Is it better to use the same db tone all the way from head unit to amp gain for example use -5 to find max clean on HU and stay same working all the way back to final setting at amp or is it better to use the 0db to find HU max clip volume and then use the -5 to set the gain for the amp?
Which do you use if keeping knob connected while setting gains max dial or half dial? (I understand what the manual says about this. I am asking if that is how everyone does it)
Lastly. If the signal light pulses even if ever so slightly is that a concern or an indication of an error the equipment being tested
I did look through the 22 pages of threads. I did not really see direct answers to these questions. If I have missed them I apologize. I assure you I did search before posting. Thank you for any info and or advice and look forward to the responses.
Kind Regards
Do you think that if you use 1/0 to a 4 reducer for the power and ground that it might of made the 3k dynamic or made any difference at all?
