meade916 Posted November 8, 2012 Report Share Posted November 8, 2012 i had a few people ask me to show the two of these products side by side so we decided to do 5 standard "blue" distortion detectors next to 5 "red" HV Distortion detectors. Also, when up against our old friend the O-scope, you can see what looks like a clean signal, really isn't. Even on a higher resolution screen. If this screen (on a more expensive scope) shows "clean" signal (or wave) imagine what your handheld oscope (with lower resolution) will show. Remember, by the time you see an actual clipped signal, it is already WAY to late. of course, they are available @ http://www.wccaraudio.com/smd-install-tools-electronics.html member coupon codes save you $10.00 Use SMDDD1 to save a few bucks....and i have plenty in stock so shipping is FAST. 1 Quote All SMD products + MORE available at my store here! https://wccaraudio.com/ Subscribe to My Youtube Channel!

BobbyG2 Posted November 8, 2012 Report Share Posted November 8, 2012 Seeing you with 10 DD-1's makes me jealous since I don't yet even have 1 DD-1! Lol, in a couple weeks I might though. Gonna save up to get both a DD-1 and CC-1. 1 Quote *New vehicle and system coming soon.* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HunterJohnson Posted November 8, 2012 Report Share Posted November 8, 2012 Hey Steve not to hate ur product, I use the dd-1 on all my amps. It works like a charm and I haven't blown an amp yet. The argument I hear a lot when people say the dd-1 is shit is that, if the O-scope says its clean, then it's a clean wave and the dd-1 limits how high you turn ur amps up bc it says distortion before actual distortion. So I guess what would ur response be to people who say the DD-1 limits the actual clean power you could be putting out since expensive o-scopes with high res screens show a clean wave Quote Scion tC SQ BuildiPad mini, lots of fabrication, daily drivenFord Explorer C Pillar Wall Build Just a cheap car to destroy with bass Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also just because a scope shows a nice rounded wave at the peak, doesn't mean it's not clipping on the way up or down the slope. 1% distortion is very minimal, and isn't detected on most LCD screams on oscopes. Personally I have a tip 440 oscopes and and upgraded dd1 to a HV version. I'll use the dd1 first every time. The scope now is just and overpriced dmm 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
