  1. 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 Props for stopping in but you guys are wasting your time in here....it isnt worth arguing. It is never a waste here, because here people actually care about learning and getting real information.
  2. Ok guys, lets try to keep this on topic about the clipping tool.

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.

    Mark and I both talked to Kevin, in an offering of advice and suggestions to help him return to good graces. Kevin promised to make CS a major priority and work to improve his reputation.
  5. That braided line looks really good. Like i've said before; Your RCAs are great!
  6. I dont care whose name is one it. If it works as advertised, I can see this being a nice tool to have. I just wonder how it would do with different test tones compared to the Oscope. If it mirrors the scope, he will sell a bunch of them since is it very simple, easy to use design with what sounds like a low price point. Still wont help stupidity tho.Plenty of folks will still find a way to smoke some subs. HaHa
  7. Post this in the.DC Power sevtion so more people interested in DC Power products can be aware of their products issues. I recommend you compare the DC Power alternator to your stock alternator. I do not recommend shims. If the mounting locations are off send the alternator back to DC Power and get a refund and buy a Mechman alt. Here is how I compared my DC Power alternator to my stock alternator. DC Power alternator mounting locations were wrong.
  8. A 36hz tuning is going to give you a big peak with the Dcon. Drop tuning to 30hz for a smoother response.
  9. 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.

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.
  11. 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.
