Smd dd-1 - db +db

[josephj86]

Ok I was just wondering about this, does the - db tracks make your system louder or do the +db make it louder I'm a little confused I have a dd1 coming and am just looking for some answers 

Any replys are much appreciated thanks

-db is for setting overlap. Use 0db to find max hu volume. - db will result in a louder system but you can go too far.

Thanks Mike ..... I have a 150.4 and my front 6.5s are Orion 250rms each and I've already blew one of them i accidentally put the bass boost up one notch my rear speakers are orion 8inch 500 rms each I think these are strong enough

Remember that even with your gains set up perfectly you can still get into trouble. Not all songs are recorded at the same level. You can't just go full tilt on every track.
