Is this possible...


Recommended Posts

Kenwood kivbt901 just tuned it with my dd1 just for highs amp cause I don't have any subs in yet....no clipping all the way turned up and no clipping with all the settings turned all the way up!!! I was very surprised and I didn't know a headunit could do this. I feel like I messed up haha. But it sounds good so no complaints from me :)

yeah, its possible. i tried a dd-1 in my car, had to add a line driver just to get enough pre-out voltage for the dd-1 to even read it (pissed me the fuck off) then went all the way up without the led coming on. didnt know if it was clean or low signal. i like to know exactly whats going on, versus waiting to see if a light comes on, then hoping that damn light is right. i eventually just said "fuck this" and bought an oscilloscope. no worries now.

dont get me wrong, im not trying to trash the dd-1 at all. its a great unit for certain applications, and i still plan to buy my own, but only for setting sub amps with. as far as headunits go, and processors go, i trust my wife setting them by ear more than i do the dd-1, and my wife dont know a god damned thing about audio. i prefer to set all my crossovers with the oscilloscope as well.

yeah i understand that. the 1k and 40hz lights didnt really turn on till 30/35 but throughout 35 it didnt clip. then i said fuck it ill turn the settings all the way up and no clipping...but like i said that was just the front and rear outputs

the biggest actual complaint i have about the dd-1 is the 40hz and 1khz thing. for example, when im going to a show, i like to setup at my peak frequency, vs some random frequency that an electronic device is setup to read at. so i go to a show, 47hz test tone, setup stuff, then go to the lanes.
