    Steve Meade's Clipping Tool

    being an annoying f*ck can definitely get you banned at SMD - now i see what happened. And yes you are full of dog shit because after david banned you initially, i PERSONALLY put it back because i saw nothing that he should have gotten THAT upset about. You continued to be annoying and broke the camels back with another mod, scratch that, ALL the mods have had it with you and the hammer fell. Apparantly you have a history of negative bullshit comments. I didnt see it but i trust the mods. Denim, please feel free to clean up this mess so we can get back on topic. We dont need to discuss this guys problems with my forum here.

    Sorry Steve. I am not trying to be rude but i know your busy so how am I going to be able to get a hold of you? I know you get spammed with a lot of emails or anything on SMD or youtube. Most of them some kid with 2 12's in his car asking what a DB is. So i don't know how i would even attempt to get into contact with you. I know that it sounded like i was bashing, and assuming which again, i apologize for. But, i was more asking what people thought about it and if it actually would be a working tool. I am glad that your taking the time to develop your product and send it out. Again, i had no idea so i ask on this SSA forum. I take it personally because i am the OP of this thread... I know you don't get rich on your subwoofer, you do get promotion, and you do get money from Youtube. I know you are making quite a lot of money, seeing as i have been watching your Youtube near when you started. I remember you buying a shop and now your doing it big. I respect that and i am not trying to be a hardcore "hater." Just what i thought i guess. Mostly, i'm just saying it's hard to get into contact with you so i ask people who have experience in Car Audio, instead of going into a local car audio shop and being told that it's useless and you can only get it "professionally" tuned. Thanks for dropping in to talk on your behalf. Do you think you could go a little bit more in depth with your new product? I watched the video and everything, and started asking questions as you can see but it would be nice to get the facts straight from you. EDIT: Sorry i just saw that other people just comment the same concept. Didn't know that people would be on it so quick. its hard to get a hold of me because there is literally thousands of messages, emails, youtube comments, forum posts, facebook comments etc and i really can only get to a fraction of them. I saw this link from someone on facebook who posted it. like i said before though, i will be posting more info on my site as well as more youtube video's when there is more info to share. FYI to the guy who asked, the disc will have 0, -5, -10db tracks with full instructions on how to use them.

    Dear Mr. M5, This tool measures DISTORTION. Yes it takes a lot of power to build a real time analyzer to measure distortion. That is what it does, that is why it works. On top of that I did it in 100% analog. This is not a toy, don't kid yourself or lead other people to think it is especially when you didn't know. Tony D'Amore D'Amore Engineering Great step. Obviously my next question is what are you using to calculate distortion (ie which harmonics etc) and at what level you consider it clipping. Glad you took the time to come here, thanks. I apologize for sounding like I inferred it was a clipping indicator. Of course even if it works I still don't see the value in knowing you are clipping for those that aren't chasing tenths on a meter. without being confrontational or anything, can i ask you this.......do you think its good advice for someone to just turn the gain knob up and hope for the best? I actually think your last statement is ass-backwards because if i was chasing numbers, i wouldnt care about distortion and a little clipping would get you more power. Dirty power that your system can handle for a burp, but still more power. For a regular system, to set your gains properly you should use an O scope. This product is designed to replace the O scope (for gain setting purposes). How about I make this simple with a question, can you hear the difference between 900w and 1000w? you are incredible.... if anyone wants any REAL info, i will have more as the product continues to improve, before we even release it. i will also, like i said, send a few out to some REAL installers, even REAL backyard installers who like to do things right.... for beta testing. Of course there is always info on my site. I would be glad to keep SSA posted but it seems like this place is hostile lately. If you guys want, i can though. All questions, even with doubts, can be answered as long as your not a dickface about it. Is that such a hard thing to do? At least at this site, you can state your own opinion and disagree with somebody without getting banned, like over on your site... And over here you don't have 10 people trying to PM you pricing on a certain product every time its mentioned in a thread. As I'm not saying anything bad about your forum, just a few people there, and your admin. Who got pissed because I said the letters DAT, without saying ONE thing ever bad about them. i didnt ban you and i believe you got banned by the other mods for being annoying and negative in all your posts. I didnt see it, they did. Thats funny, nobody has EVER been banned for their opinion yet you guys always say that AFTER you fucked up and got yourself banned. Come in here and state your opinion on how much SSA woofers suck and see how long you last. OF course if someone is gonna outright dog me, or one of my mods/admins out, on MY forum, they wont last on MY website. If you arent getting along with others, you wont last long. Simple. That being said, again i didnt ban you. I dont konw about 10 people PM'ing anyone "whenever a thread starts", feel free to send me the messages you are getting i will be happy to take a look. You are full of dogshit, i dont believe that for a second... but go ahead, send away i will review them.

Perhaps all the way, for maximum power?

    damn and i didnt even tell tony to come in here....i didnt want him to feel obligated to come argue with you guys only to spend the next week arguing. if you woulda just asked nicely, even with your doubts, your concerns can be addressed like gentleman. of course we are trying to make money, duhhh, but not from snake oil. This is a legit product. This thing would have been released a LONG time ago if it was JUST about money but we want a quality, WORKING, RELIABLE tool before it goes to market. Some lucky people will be chosen as beta testers to confirm everything is good. by the way, i dont get rich off sales of my subwoofer, i get a small amount for licensing, a VERY small amount. I make a little more when i actually sell them AS A DEALER and let me tell you, i read/respond to probably 300-500 emails before i make a sale. Therefore i dont make shit for the amount of time i put into it. just an FYI

    by the way, this thing doesnt work like the stupid clip light on some amps and i will agree, just like Tony does, that THOSE are useless. This thing doesnt work like that. Its not a clip detector as much as a DISTORTION tester.

    anyone who wants REAL info on this product can come to my site and ask. I refuse to get into a pissing match with the know-it-alls in this thread. Come to my site, post your theory on why it wont work, and i will get a straight answer. Here, you will just get some jackass, with a grudge against me, running his mouth. Just like BITCH ASS CA.com. good day.

    Sorry man, we aren't doing measurements lol. Thats the best I can do, is just tell you the sizes. I'm not a tailer lol. Sorry well I wasnt asking for every single piece of information you can possible get from a shirt armpit to armpit measure would be enough. Am I asking for too much now? i will answer this for mark. Yes you are asking too much. Its a shirt. They come in S, M, L, XL, XXL, XXXL etc. When he says he isnt a Tailor, i think that is a pretty fair response and not really even a smart-ass one......its just a shirt bro.
