Gold is the money of kings, silver is the money of gentlemen, debt is the money of slaves. Just my .02c

that shop needs keep those doors open so they have to charge for it

if people think 10k is a lot then they should get into other hobbies.. like masturbating, cause any hobby cost money to maintain

Lol no, I'm smarter than that bro haha. Fool me once, shame on you, fool me twice..............go fuck yourself lol

Both done with -0db tracks, full volume on head unit. Off of the RCA cables right before amps.

I am looking for a portable scope.

I am told the range for being off is +/-0.1 20hz and +/-0.5 at 10khz

Edit

I found a fluke 863 graphical multimeter

So what happens when you leave the headunit connected to the amplifiers and measure with the included harness at the speaker connectors of amplifier and use a -10dB track?

I have tested a least a dozen headunits that are distorted at 40Hz, from both the RCA outputs and speaker outputs. I have looked at them on a scope and they don't look that bad to the naked eye, but they are very distorted. I wouldn't want a headunit in my system that has this problem.

Yes 9.5% THD!!

I tested it with the amp, Please forgive me as I am very tired, I have been on nights for 5 days now and only 4 hrs of sleep per day.

I am going to go check my brother's pioneer headunit, to see what it does.
