Has anyone used the DD-1 with an MS-8? Setup is: Alpine x305s > MS-8 > Massive NX4 & Massive N2. Hu adjust works great, If i run the HU straight to the amp i can adjust without problems but when the MS-8 is in the mix I can't get a signal, HU volume is at max before distortion and no matter what I set the volume of the MS-8 at I get no signal on the DD-1. I ended up just adjusting the amp gains with the signal straight from the HU and then recalibrating the accoustic measurememnt of the MS-8. Sounds great but I just want mnake sure there wasn't something i missed or if this a known issue with the MS-8...etc. Thanks.

I don't use the HU in my system for anything other than "if" I need to play a disk, and for the main power on/off. All of my music played is either from my HTC EVO 4G via 3.5mm plug or a Sansa MP3 player connected to the MS-8's AUX input. I have copied the DD-1 disk and the CC-1 disks to my phone. I tried to see if I could know what the max volume on my phone was by taking a 3.5mm to RCA cable to a Y-splitter into the DD-1 and proceded like I would for a HU...Not enough voltage for a signal in the DD-1. My question is that since the main volume I use for my system is from my MS-8, how would I find the max volume by using the MS-8 in this set up? I have two 4ch amps (RF 551X) and one mono amp (RF501bd). I have one of the 4 ch amps running my 6.5" door speakers with channel 1 and 2 bridged to the left speaker and 3 and 4 to the right. This is where the CC-1 comes in to properly gain match which I haven't done yet. Any suggestions? My HU does not distort at full tilt either FYI....Thanks in advance.
