And the blue on the amp is actually closer to the paint on the car than the pic makes it look.

Also got it most of the way installed, just need to pull the dash apart to run the remote over to the driver side and then hit it with the DD-1. Can't remember if I did -5 or -10 db the last time I tuned, don't know which to do this time :/

95% done, just need a couple small screws to mount the remote knob.

Also took the opportunity since I was going to unplug them anyways, and color coded my 4 channel RCA's with some electrical tape.

And I would go out and test it, but we've had about 14-16" of snow drop in the last 48 hours and the roads are kind of shitty.

Luckily I can at least do this work in the garage, not a lot of room or heated but it stays above 40o, just gotta keep away from the door. And if it gets too cold in there I can turn on the propane heater if I really need to.

Next time I get the time, maybe this weekend or something, I'm going to unhook everything and retune at -5. Keep seeing the clip light come on for certain songs a lot earlier than I'd like it to.

Dirty songs?

I have heard that the clip meters are inaccurate. I never used the knob that came with it, thats why it was brand new when I sent it. I use the PAC LC1. I would recommend using one of these instead of that knob.

I've heard that too but when I was tuning it was daaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaamn close, I mean the clip light came on just barely a moment before the DD-1 started to faintly glow and that was using a -10db tone.

Primarily it's been on a few songs that really seem to get the light going and when listening to it you don't really hear that much of a gain in the low end as volume increases past that point, which contributes to the idea that it is for sure clipping.

Not that I know of, haven't really listened to any decaf in a while, was with a couple young jeezy songs. Think welcome back was one, can't rememeber the others of the top of my head.
