BFF Larry Posted May 3, 2013 Author Report Share Posted May 3, 2013 As said before I wouldn't try to gain match them. Plus the need for master/slave isn't needed when you have a cc-1 to do gain matching with. All the master/slave case does is perform the matching for you, thats it. I would not try running them on a system that is gain matched as you will have different qualities in parts that will cause variations in the signal. Like they may have nearly the same board but maybe one has a higher capacity capacitor (that sounds dumb saying it like that lol) and the other may have ones that don't have as much capacitance and it will skew the output of the amps when used together. ah, okay, so i should get the same amp?

CJ18 Posted May 3, 2013 Report Share Posted May 3, 2013 As said before, just because they look the same doesnt mean that the parts are the same. Think about it like a set of twins, just because they were born at the same time doesnt mean that all of their parts are the exact same. I would either find a second cactus, or sell the one you have and get a pair of matching amps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kickass audio Posted May 3, 2013 Report Share Posted May 3, 2013 No problem man. It never hurts to ask something before you go and do it and risk blowing up an amp in the process. Its only the stupid questions that deserve a crack to the face. lol. 2004 GMC Envoy1 XS power S3400 batt under the hood and 4 XS Power D3100's battery installed in the rear by the amps0 gauge power wire from front to backAlpine iva-w205 touchscreen dvd/cd/mp3/ipod/am/fm/gps headunitSundown Audio SAX-200.4 amp for my mids and highs8 gauge speaker wire from amp to woofer270 amp Mechman AltRockford Fosgate T1652-s component speakersRockford Fosgate 3Sixty.2 sound processorRca's from Rockford Fosgate and Monster Cable14 gauge speaker wire for the mids and highs1 18" Ascendant Audio SMD Dual 1 ohm with custom Black & Blue carbon fiber and hand signed dustcapBox: 5.66 cubic feet net volume box tuned to 30.13Hz with 1.5" wide wooden dowels and 1.5" thick baffle1 DC Audio 5.0k amp wired to .5 ohms nominal with an imp rise of 1.35 ohms for the single AA SMD 18"Future Vision 8000k 50w bi-xenon projector HID's with 4300k 35w fog lightsLink to my build: Buildupdates/progress Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
