30Hz.wav Posted January 19, 2012 Report Share Posted January 19, 2012 The problem seems to be that you are trying to set this through AUX. You should probably get a stereo with RCA outputs and use the CD that the DD-1 came with. Just my personal suggestion\thought. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Audioguy564 Posted January 19, 2012 Report Share Posted January 19, 2012 Here is a couple of things to check: 1. Did you turn off sound check on itunes? (sound check will change the level of the tracks to a normalized level and the tracks will no longer be calibrated) 2. When you ripped the tracks off the disk did you use the highest bit rate available? (Low bit rates will cause distortion in some cases) Please check every component down the signal path or test the DD-1 on another set-up to verify if defective. You can send the DD-1 in for us to check and service if a problem exists. Quote Juan Rodriguez Chief Technology Officer D'Amore Engineering T15KW Support Engineer System.

TonyD'Amore Posted January 19, 2012 Report Share Posted January 19, 2012 Glad to hear your distortion detector is working well. Our defective rate is really really low on the tool. Glad that you've tried it out on another setup. If the distortion light is on, there is distortion somewhere. We have found the following with the DD-1 by having issues like you had: * Bad line output convertors * Bad ground loop isolators * Bad iPods * Bad headunits * damaged amplifiers * distorted signal processors Its pretty amazing what it can stiff out, good luck!
