Deadly hertzz Posted April 1, 2014 Author Report Share Posted April 1, 2014 (edited) My original post was about the dd1 anyhow not any speakers or 4 channel or any of that my doors touch the seat in almost every spot except one open spot where I'm doing the pods and that's just how it's gonna be, to anyone still following the thread, just drop the line driver and re set the gain with the remote knob all the way up correct ? And also what would the outcome be when dd1'ing with the remote knob unhooked completely then Hooked back up after tuning ?

RCP Audio Posted April 1, 2014 Report Share Posted April 1, 2014 (edited) jezus its like children fighting in the sand pit in this thread! Never knows best. your username is rather accurate. you are trying to tell someone that they are doing something wrong (which they are not doing wrong), just because its not how you would do it. 8 speakers on a 4 channel is not out of the blue by ANY means! there is nothing fucking wrong with using his head unit, it maybe 10 watts but maybe thats also enough power for the speakers that its powering. they could be 1inch away from his ears for all you know... AND IT IS NOT WHAT THIS THREAD IS RELATED TO AT ALL stop being a smart ass. It has been proven by many people that it gets you nowhere now that my post 18hour shift rant is finished... try dd1ing with out the line driver, sounds like you were using that as your meter before the dd1 so try it with out. if your getting really shitty voltage and you do need it, then by all means put it back in, the reason why we are suggesting to try it without is that it is just another device that has the possibilty to make the signal dirty which is what you don't want turn the knob all the way up and then test again, you could test with out the knob then plug in. but I dont suggest it at all because then you are tuning the dd1 against what your actually going to be using which is the point, the knob might also make the signal dirty for some unknown reason so best to test it with it. now, if you are still having the same trouble. try it with out the knob. if it then works like I said earlier go get yourself a lc1 they are cheap as heck and will do excatly what you want it to do! Edited April 1, 2014 by RCP Audio Quote PSN: Rcp_soundz Good rule of thump is go by what fuse size is being used in these amps. The higher the more amperage it pulls, this is what I look at. I'll stick a 300 amp fuse in a potato and sell it to you for $2k. 1991 Mazda 323VERY small build thread here: http://www.stevemead...23-small-build/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly right I was using it to set the gain with previous amps, so after work Ile drop the line driver and re tune it with just straight rca's and the knob all the way up and see how it comes out, thanks, and yeh it is just an added piece that makes it more complicated and another piece that has to be dd1'd but Ile give it a try after work and see how it sounds thanks alot Edited April 1, 2014 by Deadly hertzz Quote 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...

RooTxBeeR Posted April 1, 2014 Report Share Posted April 1, 2014 Did anyone completely skip over the fact, that he said he tuned his amps with a EQ preset on his HU? Unhook the speakers from the HU now, they will do nothing to make your ride sound better or louder, only hinder it. When you set your amp, set it with your knob all the way up, seeing as you said it's a level adjustment, not bass boost. And when you set everything, all your EQ's and filters must be at their lowest points or completely turned off.

Deadly hertzz Posted April 1, 2014 Author Report Share Posted April 1, 2014 ^ I understand but say I set it with the eq to flat but then once it's all set I turn the eq back on won't it send it to clipping since the signal will be a tad higher then with it to flat Quote 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...
Deadly hertzz Posted April 1, 2014 Author Report Share Posted April 1, 2014 (edited) Also I just reset it without the line driver and with the knob at halfway when I was on break at work a minute ago but haven't got a chance to turn it up since I'm out there n the parking lot Edited April 1, 2014 by Deadly hertzz Quote 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...

Deadly hertzz Posted April 1, 2014 Author Report Share Posted April 1, 2014 After I reset everything without the line driver and with the knob adjusted, I didn't play full tilt but half volume I could tell that actually turning it down turned it down adm turning it up turned it up since I set it with the knob in the middle, so hopefully that fixed my problem I didnt WANa smoke any subs and the dd1 is handy once you figure out how to properly set everything to use it, thanks everyone Quote 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...
