n8ball2013 Posted December 8, 2013 Report Share Posted December 8, 2013 Why dont you just take the stupid line driver out? There is zero reason to have one anymore to be honest. Every decsnt head unit will have at least 2 volt pre outs and thats more than enough for every amp on the market.

Deadly hertzz Posted December 8, 2013 Author Report Share Posted December 8, 2013 Yeh true only reason I was still using it because it built in flush by my 4 channels amp rack and the amp RCA is ran in a way if have to pull box out and carpet up to get it to the RCAs on the amp, I did order a dd1 but hasn't arrived yet so I guess when it gets here Ile just sell the line driver I kinda had it to "cheat" set gains on all my old amps but since I got this amp I've been a lot more cautious about setting everything thanks for the input that's what all Ile do ! 8 sundown sa 12s walledSaz3000 at .5HO altAll ofc Sky high wireAlpine componentsRockford power mids Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
n8ball2013 Posted December 9, 2013 Report Share Posted December 9, 2013 The dd1 will make it muxh easier much much easier.

Deadly hertzz Posted December 25, 2013 Author Report Share Posted December 25, 2013 Set the deck first. Find the maximum non-distorted output and record that number. Might be something like 47 out of 50 (for example.) If it is, leave it at 47. Now with the line driver plugged in, turn it up while looking for distortion. Once it distorts back up just a hair. Now take a DMM, put it on A/C and check the voltage. If it's 8 or 9vac like you say it is, then turn it back till it is at 6. Usually, i set them to 5v but 6v is ok too if that is what you want it. This is all assuming the thing is clean till that point. For all you know, it is clean until 3v. Audio Control is good stuff so it probably is clean till at least 5v. Anyhow, lets assume the line driver is clean at 6v and the deck at 47 out of 50 (still an example). Leave it all turned up just like that and then adjust the amp gain accordingly. Once you are done with that your gains are set and you are done. Chances are, if you are pumping 6 CLEAN volts into that amp, you might not be turning the gains up at all, maybe a hair. That is a good thing though! 8 sundown sa 12s walledSaz3000 at .5HO altAll ofc Sky high wireAlpine componentsRockford power mids Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
