meade916 Posted April 28, 2012 Report Share Posted April 28, 2012 The other day, someone brought up a video showing the new JBL amps with the special "internal gain setting" technology. It sounds pretty good but i wanted to see how it stacks up against the DD-1. Here is the video i saw. so i bought it and tested it....here is the video. overall its a nice amp but to me without knowing where the deck distorts FIRST, everything else is out the window. What happens if you have a processor or line driver in the system? This will do you no good then either. On top of that, if you used those high level inputs, the deck itself would distort MUCH sooner and the gap between gain settins (dd-1 vs theirs) would be much wider. So not dissing on JBL, i really am a fan......but i think they missed the mark. Quote All SMD products + MORE available at my store here! https://wccaraudio.com/ Subscribe to My Youtube Channel!

KillaCam Posted April 28, 2012 Report Share Posted April 28, 2012 What if you had ignored JBL's manual and put the deck to its maximum UNDISTORTED output before setting the gain?

Noobtastic14 Posted April 28, 2012 Report Share Posted April 28, 2012 Is there a particular reason you set the jbl unloaded and set with the DD1 loaded?
