piti_rocks Posted August 1, 2017 Report Share Posted August 1, 2017 Hi, I purchased a OM-1 a few months ago. Now I installed it and it runs... a sort of. I cant adjust the sensitivity low enough. My amp does 107V before Clipping (According to DD-1+) and the OM-1 should be capable of 150V. Also, wenn I run my system my amp will protect at roughly 70% of volume when the OM-1 is connected. Under 70% it works like it should. Is this a known issue or do I have a bad OM-1? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The sensitivity adjustment of the OM-1 should allow it to be used on amplifiers from 12V - 150VAC output. Is this a class D subwoofer amplifier that you are having the problem with?

piti_rocks Posted August 4, 2017 Author Report Share Posted August 4, 2017 Yep, its a Kove XXXX (10k Class D). But I cant adjust the senitivity low enough to not get the red LEDs. This means they get red way before my amp clips. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kyblack76 Posted August 4, 2017 Report Share Posted August 4, 2017 It can go to 12v. Your amp clipping at 9v or something? I'm lost. Quote SMD SUPER SELLER The Burban Build Blazer Build sold Acura trunk build sold Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
piti_rocks Posted August 4, 2017 Author Report Share Posted August 4, 2017 No, its clipping at 107V and I cant set it low/high enough to get out of the red zone. It gets in the red zone way to early. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
piti_rocks Posted August 16, 2017 Author Report Share Posted August 16, 2017 So thats the type of support you recieve if your 90$ SMD product doesnt work properly? Well thank you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wishuponasub Posted August 16, 2017 Report Share Posted August 16, 2017 This is a forum. Have you tried emailing them or picking up a phone and calling? This is not their business site. This is just a bunch of bassheads talking. I'm sure if you were to call that Tony would walk you through it step by step.

WalledSonic Posted August 16, 2017 Report Share Posted August 16, 2017 how can you be sure that your amp isnt producing distortion? Have you looked at the output on an o-scope to confirm you have a clean signal?
