YukonDCXL Posted March 7, 2014 Report Share Posted March 7, 2014 I have a couple xl's and tuned my amp with the dd-1 but my bass knob for my dc amp shows clipping, I was told to ignore this if it was properly tuned with the dd-1 but my subs start to get pretty stinky a couple songs in and dust caps get warm. I've herd that some dc subs just smell but I don't want to blow these things. what do you guys think? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

never knows best Posted March 7, 2014 Report Share Posted March 7, 2014 Stop playing shitty clipped music I assume too often that people are aware that downloaded music from the wrong source could be clipped to holly hell... but could very well be the case in this situation- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
