Gold is the money of kings, silver is the money of gentlemen, debt is the money of slaves. Just my .02c

that shop needs keep those doors open so they have to charge for it

if people think 10k is a lot then they should get into other hobbies.. like masturbating, cause any hobby cost money to maintain

Lol no, I'm smarter than that bro haha. Fool me once, shame on you, fool me twice..............go fuck yourself lol

Since when does a DD-1 control signal level? lol

He is asking what is the best method to be able to turn up and down the sub level while playing music.

My answer, The gain should be set properly and forgotten about. Once set, do not use it as an adjustable level control.

Now, the other options depend on your own likes. An inline RCA bass level knob will act similar to the sub level on the head unit. So it is up to you to decide what is more convenient for you.

If the amp comes with a remote bass knob, you can use that too. They are usually a built in crossover boost though and can add distortion if not accounted for in your initial gain adjust.

well stated Ed .. I should have been more clear .. set the LC-1 to max and use the DD-1 to set the level then use the LC-1 as an attenuation to lower the level according to material played

Ed that's what I was looking for. When I said dd1 I meant after gain was set and you use the knob that comes with the amp doesn't it mess up the settings set with dd1 as I believed the knob was also a gain. But I think you understand what im talking anout.

Yo dog i heard you like boxes. so i put a box inside a box so you can bass while you FAIL
