KingPepsi Posted October 22, 2012 Report Share Posted October 22, 2012 This is probably a really silly and stupid question so I apologize in advance. What is the procedure if your head unit does not have any kind of volume display? My stock HU in my BMW has no numbers or lines or anything to judge where volume is.

SnowDrifter Posted October 22, 2012 Report Share Posted October 22, 2012 No indication at all? The knob doesn't start or stop turning at a certain point? What is your input media? ~~~~~~~~SAY NO TO PHOTOBUCKET~~~~~~~~ Snow's DD-1 tracks here: https://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/167433-snows-dd-1-tracks/ My take on OFC vs CCA: https://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/110381-things-that-piss-you-off-in-the-car-audio-world/?do=findComment&comment=2461444 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KingPepsi Posted October 22, 2012 Author Report Share Posted October 22, 2012 No indication at all? The knob doesn't start or stop turning at a certain point? What is your input media? The radio shows no indication whatsoever of volume level even the volume knob just spins and spins.. My hope is that when i do get around to DD1ing it that it doesnt distort haha then i dont need the reference point. As far as input media I am running a Dice integration unit for my ipod like this And this is mostly why i dont want to get rid of the stock deck along with other reasons. The stock deck is alpine though. This signature intentionally left blank. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The HU in the car is so far integrated into it. And unless I take the factory display and hide it somewhere, i lose alot of functionality. This signature intentionally left blank.

Kyblack76 Posted October 22, 2012 Report Share Posted October 22, 2012 ONE FORSURE WAY to remedy this is to get a headunit with a volume level display. Not always possible,.. (i know how you feel) Does your vol knob "click" when you rotate it clock wise,, (up) ? count the clicks.... ??? And look for distortion..

Noel989 Posted October 22, 2012 Report Share Posted October 22, 2012 Maye you can add a lil bump (so it'll get "stuck") one on the deck surface and the other one on the knob so you can mark the minimum and maximum so it won't spin more that it has to Build Log - http://www.stevemead...-cruiser-el-pt/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
