gr8handogoatness Posted March 23, 2014 Report Share Posted March 23, 2014 No vs threads... wait... Yes a dd1 will benefit you. No it won't hurt sundown amps, or any other amp for that matter. Not having one will hurt your subs though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kyblack76 Posted March 23, 2014 Report Share Posted March 23, 2014 Yes. That tool ONLY has a issue with one board. One board on the entire planet. One board, that is built in a build house with 4.8 million other boards. I totally see the reasoning and sanity behind it all. I hope the sarcasm is caught, as I'm laying it down pretty thick.

Miguels Posted March 23, 2014 Report Share Posted March 23, 2014 (edited) Dbr started that just to void warranties.. he didnt want to fix amps that had been damaged either by user error or fixing properly.. but honestly what can a DD-1 do to mess an amp? its the same as if you tune it with an oscope Edited March 23, 2014 by Miguels Quote my logshttp://www.stevemead...-my-new-set-up/my blow through loghttp://www.stevemead...future-updates/ 96 ss http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/164094-96-impala-ss-build/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

meade916 Posted March 24, 2014 Report Share Posted March 24, 2014 the only related problem (to this) i saw was where someone yanked our probe cords too hard causing the wires inside to rip apart and touch each other inside of the jack itself. IIRC he admitted walking away with the dd-1 in hand while it was still attached to the amp. I've done it personally although i never ripped the wire...but i can see someone not paying attention and doing so. Then, like a dim-wit, the guy decides to hook it up to another amp. I guess it sparked and made the amp go into protect. Not really OUR fault. He even sent it back to me and it was CLEARLY pulled hard (abused), causing his issue. I don't care if you use an O-scope, DMM, DD-1 or anything else to tune your system. If you rip the wires on any piece of testing equipment and then probe an amp, it's asking for trouble. The DD-1 will not damage a sundown amp as long as the wires weren't broken by user error (and still shoved in anyway). An O-scope will not damage a sundown amp as long as the wires weren't broken by user error (and still shoved in anyway). i suspect the .00001% of users who have had a similar issue, also have a bad probe wire. We don't ship them bad, they don't go bad on their own. If someone reading this has a DD-1 and accidentally rips the wire, it's ok, like i said, i have done it. But don't be a dummy and probe the amp anyway (without verifying the cable is good). Call us, we will most likely replace it for you.
