MIKE-2U Posted February 29, 2012 Report Share Posted February 29, 2012 Just wanted to know if it is ok to use the dd-1 while the car is off, snowing hard today and want the garage (not heated) shut so obviously can't have car running. i assume i can with the cc-1 but what about dd-1 ? what if i have it on a charger ?

Lbox88 Posted February 29, 2012 Report Share Posted February 29, 2012 (edited) I was just thinking about this the other day. If you were to tune with the car off, your voltage is lower, so if you had drop when playing with car running, then you shouldn't clip at all even with drop right? just how my mind works I guess, makes sense to me. I would assume if you had NO drop, then you would want to tune at 14.x so that you could get the most power out of the amp as possible.

MIKE-2U Posted February 29, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 29, 2012 so if my battery charger will charge at 14.5 i can do tune it while on the charger ?

KillaCam Posted February 29, 2012 Report Share Posted February 29, 2012 Well you could... but think of it like this, you don't listen to your system with the car off do you? It would be more precise if the car was on.

MIKE-2U Posted February 29, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 29, 2012 I did i was really just curious if you could, for someone with 4 or more amps it could take awhile.

TonyD'Amore Posted February 29, 2012 Report Share Posted February 29, 2012 Tune with the car off. The difference is less than 1dB of gain overlap and has already been factored in because the amplifier is unloaded when the speakers are disconnected.

Hunters21w Posted March 1, 2012 Report Share Posted March 1, 2012 So if tuned with the car on whats the difference? Is it worth re tuning with the car off?

BOOM! thank you tony. i have tuned with my oscope since day one with the cars off. i have always figured its such a short time in the life of a battery(s) its not going to make it that much different.
