Nikitaaa Posted December 30, 2012 Report Share Posted December 30, 2012 I think u guys over thinkin it. Correct me if im wrong but steave proved on a video that the base boost on an ipod or ipad didnt distort. Maybe this will but I use base boost on my ipod all the time. With no issue Link to video? All settings should be flat.. In source and unit. Bass boost isn't good. 2007 M/T Honda Civic Coupe EX (4) Sundown Audio X-8's (2) Ampere Audio 3800.1's (3) Stinger SPV-44 Batteries (1) Mechman 240 3:1 Ratio 4th order sealed from the trunkTEAM NWSPLBest termlab scores to date in Honda trunk:151.7db legal (official) IASCA trunk 3 classBest termlab scores to date in my walled Subie:152.9db legal (unofficial) IASCA advanced 2 class155db outlaw Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mha Posted December 30, 2012 Report Share Posted December 30, 2012 Theres to many vids to find it. Anyone else sean it? It an old video. He tunes it flat then boosts the base and still doesnt distort. Hope some can link the video Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SnowDrifter Posted December 30, 2012 Report Share Posted December 30, 2012 Does your computer have a mic-in? You can download some free oscilloscope programs for your comp. Just hook the phone up and play something like a 20kHz - 20Hz sweep and -0db and see if it clips with the beats thing on, and with it off. I think this is one of those times where the dd-1 might me ineffective for you because if it boots any other frequency more than it does 40hz or 1kHz, you will have clipping that won't be detected by the dd-1 ~~~~~~~~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...
Nikitaaa Posted December 30, 2012 Report Share Posted December 30, 2012 Hears the link at about 8min 30sec Interesting... Maybe the boost in that eq setting is minimal enough for the dd-1 to not detect. you have to remember though, it will be different with different systems. Maybe Steve turned down the gain to much on the amp when the dd1 found distortion and that's why it didn't pick up the extra source volume. Just because he got away with it doesn't mean everyone will and its "clip free". Cool video though. Now I know what to do if I ever want to connect my nexus to my car! OP- I have beats audio on my laptop and its really nothing special. Its mostly just a built in EQ that gets clippy really fast. 2007 M/T Honda Civic Coupe EX (4) Sundown Audio X-8's (2) Ampere Audio 3800.1's (3) Stinger SPV-44 Batteries (1) Mechman 240 3:1 Ratio 4th order sealed from the trunkTEAM NWSPLBest termlab scores to date in Honda trunk:151.7db legal (official) IASCA trunk 3 classBest termlab scores to date in my walled Subie:152.9db legal (unofficial) IASCA advanced 2 class155db outlaw Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OP- I have beats audio on my laptop and its really nothing special. Its mostly just a built in EQ that gets clippy really fast. yeah i feel like it's just something to give "good" audio to everyone. problem everyone usually thinks "good" audio is just loud audio I think you have a bit of truck stuck in your mud bro ~Ford Ranger, ext cabKenwood DDX4701/0ga stinger wiring for big 31/0ga ofc flextech wiring 3 kinetik 800's AQ2200 @1ohm Sundown Audio X15 in a 27Hz tuned ported box LE BUILD LOG!!!

SnowDrifter Posted December 31, 2012 Report Share Posted December 31, 2012 Just google search for free oscilloscope download or something and see what works for you.

revoracing247 Posted December 31, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 31, 2012 ALRIGHT! finally got some answers i was looking for! i downloaded an O-scope program and finally got it to take input from my phone. and here's my findings. with beats audio off: no clipping anywhere at any volume. with beats audio on: clipping pretty dang bad ad volume 29-30 @ ~65Hz so here's it at volume 30 with a 65Hz tone with beats audio on: and here's volume at 28 with beats on with a 65Hz tone: and thanks snow drifter for the suggestion! i think im gonna just go with beats audio on and not go above 28 volume.
