So a few years ago I borrowed a friends O-scope from the lab. Found my max volume on my Pioneer 5900 to be 52, 53 squared the wave off. I then set my gains with everything flat with a 40hz 0db track and 1000hz 0db track. A couple of months ago I purchased the DD-1 and got right to trying it out. I plugged it in to the RCA's from the deck made sure all crossovers were all the way up again and all eq's and boosts were flat and off. The pioneer maxes out at 62 on the volume. The DD-1 didn't even detect signal until I was in the mid 30's and when I turned up the volume it went all the way to 62 with no distortion light. Suspicious that the light might not be functioning I turned the EQ up until finally it did come on. So on both the 40hz 0db and 1000hz 0db tracks the DD-1 showed not even a flicker all the way up to 62. So I'm a little concerned as I said the O-scope showed clipping at 52 but DD-1 is saying I'm good to go up to 62. How is that possible? Any help or advise on this would be great! I mean if it's good to 62, which is where I have everything set now, then I'm cool with that but in all the videos I've seen comparing the DD-1 to an O-scope when the wave on the scope squares off the DD-1 is lighting up. So just confused and concerned. Thanks in advance for any help or advise.
