why do other forums hate on the dd-1 so much?


Recommended Posts

I was just browsing through other forums and stumbled through the DIY forum and those guys talk more crap about the dd-1 than anything I've ever seen.

Worst part is that not a single one had any proof to discredit the dd-1 although Steve provides all the proof in the world and they still can't seem to understand.

They all say that it's a dumbed down o scope like and I quote "it sounds like the DD-1 is like the idiot light on your car's diagnostic system" and then goes the same person goes on and says "I have never used the DD-1, or even seen one in the flesh, but it sounds like a cool clipping detector that Meade is making bank on."

Many said that its useless because it measures distortion and not clipping...

guess they don't understand that clipping is a type of distortion but they don't understand that not all distortion is clipping.

I would love to see someone try and discredit the DD-1 because honestly I don't think they could!

Kind of related to the topic. I have seen the dd1 hurt feelings when I have tuned their system and it wasn't as loud as it was when they were clipping the shit out their system lol.

i got a friend who wants to get his system tuned when i meet a guy to do mine ( i dont own a DD-1 and the nearest person with one is about 2 hours away) and im afraid my friend is gonna be in for a rude awakening because he plays his stuff one volume click below where the amp cuts off on the low notes...
