Bass4Lyfe Posted January 5, 2009 Report Share Posted January 5, 2009 Ok, so refer to this for my testing results.. http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/ind...showtopic=35235 Now my 5-7 v on music is just where I want it. the 10.3 on a tone is bad though. ------------- recently my subs have been cutting out (I think the amp is going into protect) on long bass notes, like late night tip or BME click. I tried to make sure pwr/ground are all tight and etc. but right now my best guess is too high of an RCA voltage on music that's like a tone, see what im saying? Is the voltage really this much different? I checked with a DMM, but I really want the 5-7 volts on muisc any ideas? ~Matthew 1998 Toyota Camry XLE V6 3L (1) ScyTek Astra 4000RS-2W-1 2-Way Remote Start Alarm with Shock and Proximity (1) 20% Tint All Around (Gately Audio) (1) 250 Amperage HO Alternator (1) Big 3 Done In 1/0 (2) Kinetik HC2400 Power Cell (1) Alpine IVA-D106 Receiver (1) Peripheral Video Bypass Device (4) Alpine SPS-17C2 Speakers (1) Alpine KCE-422i iPod Control Interface (4) Sheets Dynamat Extreme; for speakers (1) 10 Square Feet Hushmat (Trunk & Rear Deck) (4) DC Audio Level 4 15" D2 Subwoofer w/ Level 5 Coils (1) Wall Built By David, Tuned to 32 Hz (1) Rockford Fosgate T40001bd Amplifier (1) Stinger 1/0 Wiring (2 runs of + 2 runs of -) (1) Stinger Volt Meter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AI James Posted January 5, 2009 Report Share Posted January 5, 2009 your supposed to use a tone for setting everything up not music Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
meade916 Posted January 5, 2009 Report Share Posted January 5, 2009 x2.....that 5-7v on music is not the way to do it. The ONLY way that works is if you ONLY use that one song you tested with for the rest of your life LMAO. Music is dynamic and no two songs are the same. Even same-songs wont be the same if they are ripped/recorded etc differently. use a TONE and get an O-scope. Your voltage doesnt matter NEARLY as much as whether or not you are clipping.

Bass4Lyfe Posted January 6, 2009 Author Report Share Posted January 6, 2009 ok, thanks guys. i'll reset it with a tone. 35 hz (close to box tuning and music to be played) or 50 hz? (AC, prob what DMM reads?) ~Matthew 1998 Toyota Camry XLE V6 3L (1) ScyTek Astra 4000RS-2W-1 2-Way Remote Start Alarm with Shock and Proximity (1) 20% Tint All Around (Gately Audio) (1) 250 Amperage HO Alternator (1) Big 3 Done In 1/0 (2) Kinetik HC2400 Power Cell (1) Alpine IVA-D106 Receiver (1) Peripheral Video Bypass Device (4) Alpine SPS-17C2 Speakers (1) Alpine KCE-422i iPod Control Interface (4) Sheets Dynamat Extreme; for speakers (1) 10 Square Feet Hushmat (Trunk & Rear Deck) (4) DC Audio Level 4 15" D2 Subwoofer w/ Level 5 Coils (1) Wall Built By David, Tuned to 32 Hz (1) Rockford Fosgate T40001bd Amplifier (1) Stinger 1/0 Wiring (2 runs of + 2 runs of -) (1) Stinger Volt Meter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eaglescorpio1 Posted January 6, 2009 Report Share Posted January 6, 2009 50hz tone using the rms voltage chart that exposport has in his sig as a link. measure the voltage on AC with a DMM. But seriously!!!!, get an O-scope!!! That is the only right way to set up your electronic equipment. I would rather not clip rather than set my shite up with a dmm and end up clipping and not knowing it. Just like meade said. Loud as f*ck, and sounds good doing it. Team built from here on out!!!! BIG things to come......... Missing link is the shite!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
