fr34kout Posted November 22, 2010 Report Share Posted November 22, 2010 There was a couple of threads about this maybe 2 weeks ago? 1 was asking about the product, 1 was a follow up video. You could clearly see when the wave started clipping, although I'm not sure if they ever tried it vs a true Oscope. Maybe ask Art (I think he just picked up a Fluke Oscope recently) or someone if you could test this vs a known good oscope. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baaudio Posted November 22, 2010 Report Share Posted November 22, 2010 thats a steal if its an accurate scope. im gonna be in the market for a scope soon. try it on a smaller amp first and see how it acts i guess Team NWSPL baaudio Build Log 2001 GMC Sierra walkthrough 4 Mechman Elite 370s, 10 AGM batteries, 3 Crossfire XS v2 18s, Crossfire 8k Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dohckiller808 Posted November 22, 2010 Author Report Share Posted November 22, 2010 i think itll be ok on my highs amp but thats a ton of volts coming from a sub amp. i wouldnt care about blowing the nano. would suck if i blew my amp from this thing.

dohckiller808 Posted November 22, 2010 Author Report Share Posted November 22, 2010 Just make sure your car is running FUNNY GUY!!! yes... no matter how well you tune up it wont help shit if the cars not started. subs go POOF!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fr34kout Posted November 22, 2010 Report Share Posted November 22, 2010 Well the whole point of seeing the wave clipping is to prevent it, if it's no accurate then what's the point of using it? Try it side by side with a known Oscope and see if one shows clipping before the other. If they both indicate clipping at the same time, you're golden.

dohckiller808 Posted November 22, 2010 Author Report Share Posted November 22, 2010 accuracy as in how fast it reads and how easy it is to see the wave. i doubt any scope no matter how shitty would show a clean audio signal clipped or vise versa. a sine wave is the simplest task for a oscope. im just worried if it can take high voltage input. i also bought a scope for my computer but im not daring to hook it up to a big amp yet.

fr34kout Posted November 22, 2010 Report Share Posted November 22, 2010 (edited) Can start small wednesday if you want. My 100.4 is bridged so ~300 watts, then can step up to my 4500 which is only about ~2400 clamped before you try the big boy. Up to you. Edit: That and I kind of want to re-oscope both amps lol Edited November 22, 2010 by fr34kout Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
