TheNewbie Posted June 20, 2011 Report Share Posted June 20, 2011 Hey guys my question is i want the subs to have around 800rms each but will the shop be able to do this, or will the shop put it on a oscope and push them till it starts to distort then back it off. So that im getting the maximum out of my system. Or will they be able to set it to what i want, and then tell me what volume i can play it at ect.

SR20DAZE Posted June 20, 2011 Report Share Posted June 20, 2011 Your name dosent lie haha jk. You actually know some so. From what i have seen most subs can handle more thn rated as long as it is cleab unclipped power. As for volume, it all depends on headunit settings, amp settings and so on Maybe someone else will elaborate Quote Hahah damn cody She ain't that sexy. I wouldn't even let her blow me.

SR20DAZE Posted June 20, 2011 Report Share Posted June 20, 2011 Depends what shop mate That too, there was a local shop that would "set it good", they did it by ear,and my gains were maxed out. Then i turned them down and got them set by oscope Quote Hahah damn cody She ain't that sexy. I wouldn't even let her blow me.

TheNewbie Posted June 20, 2011 Author Report Share Posted June 20, 2011 Yeah i'l have hem set by an o-scope but im not sure what you mean luis im trying to figure out if they will set it with an o-scope to get them to there full potential as well as my amp without clipping, or if i can tell them put so many watts to each sub and make sure it's not clipping and distorting. Also as for depends on the shop, there all authorized by kicker ect. Mainstream brands i would hope they have an oscope so i'll be sure to ask before they set my things up.

Then i turned them down and got them set by oscope So your saying that they will set my gains for me, to there maximum potential as far as wattage goes without clipping, and distorting. So i have no control over how many watts i want going to each. Quote Check out my build log: http://www.stevemead...60#entry1958353 Different folks have different strokes.

To see how much rms they are getting they can use a oscope to see thr signal is not clipped and clamp meter to see how much power thry are using. Dont be affraid to ask the shop if they have all the equipment. Quote Hahah damn cody She ain't that sexy. I wouldn't even let her blow me.

TheNewbie Posted June 20, 2011 Author Report Share Posted June 20, 2011 Haha trust me i won't be shy about it, if they say no i'll be like wtf?! Im calling kicker lmao. But OH see i don't know how an o-scope works so on the o-scope they will be able to tell how many watts is going to each, so i can tell them i want 800 going to each just be sure that the signal is not clipping. Nor distorting. Quote Check out my build log: http://www.stevemead...60#entry1958353 Different folks have different strokes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
optical Posted June 20, 2011 Report Share Posted June 20, 2011 no probably not unless you go to a quality shop. you need to see what your amp does untill it gets clipped then clamp it to see what your getting out of it and then tune anything lower than what the oscope settings were.

SR20DAZE Posted June 20, 2011 Report Share Posted June 20, 2011 The o scope sees how the signal is clipped not A clamp meter sees how much power they see What amp and subs are you using?
