Well partly because the days of tuning by ear are pretty much over. DD-1s & other tuners everywhere to use and get it right. Cause you got lucky once doesnt mean it will keep happening but hey its your equipment...Burn it up. I know for me buying a DD-1 was priceless. I have thousands into my small system and i want my shit right so i forked out the $150 to have the right tool.

If you are that knowledged the you know shit equipment is shit equipment. Sometimes thats what people have $ for and other time they make it work i guess. And when you make a post like this expect the responses you have gotten or dont post.

I am not saying i know everything or that i have a perfect ear because i don't. I just had a question that's all.

Correct, since it is parallel it will continue to be 2 volts after the split.

Krakin, are you some sort of mad scientist?

I would have replied earlier, but I was measuring the output of my amp with a yardstick . . .

What you hear is not the air pressure variation in itself

but what has drawn your attention

in the two streams of superimposed air pressure variations at your eardrums

An acoustic event has dimensions of Time, Tone, Loudness and Space

Everyone learns to render the 3-dimensional localization of sound based on the individual shape of their ears,

thus no formula can achieve a definite effect for every listener.

A splitter shouldn't half your voltage. Other than the voltage drop a tiny bit going from one material to another.

if a HU is rated at 2V pre-out, is it 1V per rca or 2 a piece?

you should read 2v on each RCA end.

and splitters dont split voltage, they are a parallel connection therefore voltage doesnt change iirc.

I just dont like splitters honestly. I would try and find out why you are only getting 1v.

ya idk. this weekend i am goanna pull the HU and test straight from the back of it. if it shows 2 per each then something is wrong between it and the amp.

if it shows 1 still something's wrong with it

Well, if you aren't having any problems, then what's the problem?

If you want to know for sure, borrow the DD-1 again.

prolly will when i get my new HU.

I think I will be headed home to roseville in 2 weeks or so. If you haven't by then, we can meet up and you can set your system with my dd-1 if you want to.
