Jessica Posted January 28, 2016 Report Share Posted January 28, 2016 The gain is set to whatever the source is, just cause a source claims 5v does not mean it can do it cleanly. i can type out like 10 paragraphs detailing this, but the info is all here on the forums Rest in peace, walled 87 accord build log 03' Corolla build with AA Mayhem inside.

ChevyBoy95 Posted January 28, 2016 Report Share Posted January 28, 2016 Even if you change HU the gain would stay the same if they have the same output voltage no, that is not true Yes it is. If they output the SAME voltage, the gain won't need to be altered. just stop, you dont know what you are talking about enlighten me then...

McOpCo Posted January 28, 2016 Author Report Share Posted January 28, 2016 At the very least get a cheap scope and multimeter from Harbor Freight, or the like, until you can get quality tools. If you want to go big later on, you'll need them. Makes things so much easier. this might help the OP and myself at the sametime.... "11 Function Digital Multimeter with Audible Continuity" at harbor freight $23.99.... it says "frequency" that would meen it has an o-scope?...... I never looked at HF for a multimeter because I have a really good one but I figured anything with an o-scope would be out of the price range for them to make a cheap one.... item#61593 and item#37772.... if so I will throw $25 at that and check it out Let me know how that one works if you would. Does anyone else have recommendations for a good quality O Scope maybe not pro quality but something that will work well and I can depend on for years to come?

McOpCo Posted January 28, 2016 Author Report Share Posted January 28, 2016 I believe the line is named after EXO Contralto. ☺️ Appreciate all the advice. I may just bite the bullet. Last question though. So if gain is relative to out from Hu then unless I change head units the gain should stay the same right? Or is that over simplifying. No, it is a musical term. No I know that contralto is a musical term I believe that is where his name can from. I believe it is an Operatic term that refers to the lowest female singing voice. But I believe this line was named for EXO Contralto. At least he says so. Have not heard from Crescendo this is true. Regardless I do like it thus far it seems very nice but I as we know am not an expert at these things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jessica Posted January 28, 2016 Report Share Posted January 28, 2016 yes Lol... go back to sleep bud. im sitting here thinking how to explain this, i mean, you did a 58 in the kick, so either your are smart, or just stupid and lucky. I think you are probably the former so i'll just say this. you cant just swap out headunits that claim the same output voltage and expect them both to put out the same clean signal at the same volume. You always have to re check the source unit for the max undistorted volume and adjust your gain to match that. Even some manufactures can have two of the exact same headunits distort at different volumes. I don't see how this is complicated or not blatantly obvious.

yurvalentine Posted January 28, 2016 Report Share Posted January 28, 2016 I still stand by what I said, if you have two sources with the same output voltage your amp gain would be the same. Wether or not that's likely to happen is a whole different story. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
