Texas Tech Posted April 27, 2007 Report Share Posted April 27, 2007 yea, i agree i just googled clipping signal and found some info Because the clipped waveform has more area underneath it than the smaller unclipped waveform, the amplifier produces more power when it is clipping. This extra power can damage any part of the loudspeaker, including the woofer or the tweeter, by causing over-excursion, or by overheating the voice coil.

Amalan Posted April 27, 2007 Report Share Posted April 27, 2007 i said put it back at 1/4th because it was better than full you set the gain by ear you turn it up till you hear distortion and turn it down a notch or two but you need to have a really keen ear for the slightest sign of distortion Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slinky Posted April 27, 2007 Report Share Posted April 27, 2007 (edited) settin your gain all the way up is the same thing as throwin your amp and sub out of a 25 story building. put it at about halway for now. i realize that different head units and stuff put out diff voltages but ive never seen an amp where i had to adjust it over halfway.
