GioRF Posted August 22, 2010 Author Report Share Posted August 22, 2010 (edited) With tha 0db test tones it sounds loud but when playing music sounds really quiet. Any ideas? What or how should i set to make it loud on music? Should i use tha -5,-10,or-15db test tones to set tha entire sistem?

PUNKYOU007 Posted August 23, 2010 Report Share Posted August 23, 2010 I find that when I set some of my friends amps with an oscope that they are disappointed. The biggest reason is because before I put the scope on it, they were clipping the living shit outta there amps. So now when I put the scope on them I had to cut the gains back which results in there setups not being "as loud". Could be the problem here. I also set gains with a 0db 50Hz tone....what are the benefits of a -10db tone? Quote Doethepaperboy "Bars of Pain" Doethepaperboy "Hero Remix" C.

kingsuv Posted August 23, 2010 Report Share Posted August 23, 2010 I've done more then a few "retunes" on peoples systems who have left disappointed because it wasn't as loud. But then again they did have less breakage when they left too, so it's a trade off. Quote Designing, building, and shipping boxes. Yahoo IM - kingsuv00If the listening level is too loud, please inform the driver, so he can promptly pull over, and let you out. not many cars can get me to pluggin my ears but this one.......damn. I mean the first minute is ok but that thing just really starts digging deeper and deeper in your earhole till you cant stand it no more. Seems like it does it with relative ease....16 12's on 8 amps.........gotta love it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
