    I'm just frustrated that when I don't need an audiophile part that is all that is available. ROFL.

    Inline for the master channels, ie: one attenuates 30db, then next one attenuates another 30db? No. One for in boat and sub, and one for tower. Then a fader (or two vol) for the sub/boat.

    No way to do this easily....unless you spend a SHIT ton of cash. One option CAN make this easier, it's mono

    Yeah, It started off as cramps, it seriously felt like someone had punched a hole through my stomach and was just clenching my organs. Cramps have gotten better but holy shit my whole body and head hurts.. -.- Exactly how I felt.

    My temporary solution will involve using two knobs to lower overall volume, but it could be worse.

    Check PE, madisound, ebay? I've done all that and more. Ebay was the closest and where the $40 + $10 shipping from Germany came from.

    Seriously? $50 for a god damn pot. I figured $5.

    I should slap you. Ok, sorry. It's definitely WAY TOO FUCKING big.

    Headphones for the train.

    If you are using the headphone output from the Droid, you will definitely need some kind of boost. when plugging my old Droid into my car I was always thankful that my H701/C701 had a lot of head room because I really needed it. My phone measures okay. Maxes out the input of the miniDSP. If the amps can do their job it won't be a problem...although I am dubious.

    And when you find their manual it sort of answers the same question as well. <--hates reading manuals

    Found the answer, figures. Same. Don't buy the normal version, lol. http://www.minidsp.com/forum/10-minidsp-for-newbies/5145-one-minidsp-one-amp-two-subs#5149

    Their website sucks btw

    I'd place the damn miniDSP order right now, but am questioning one very simple thing. Why wouldn't you buy the Advanced version? Seems like the basic + biquad flexibility. I don't plan to use it, but if there are no other subtractions with that plug in I don't see why I wouldn't buy it.
  22. ///M5 replied to mrray13's topic in Off Topic
    I personally don't want one to make a point. I thoroughly despise the overuse for no apparent reason of line drivers. It's akin to the SMD distortion detector rip off in general. Definitely a time and place and I'm pretty sure I'll need one but . I may cheat and use 3 gain blocks instead. A passive pot that is splash resistant is better on a boat anyways and the more budget friendly the better. Of course if it's cheaper to just buy a line driver I'd be dumb not to.
  23. ///M5 replied to mrray13's topic in Off Topic
    I'm going to need a line driver as well. Just not sure if I'll need 3 channels (5 if you separate L/R) or if a single will work Output of the Droid at 0dB is ~ 0.9Vrms. Input of the miniDSP is conveniently the same...however, I need to split the signal into two of them. Leaving me with .45V. At this point I am going to try a single PPI. They require .28V to clip with the gains maxed. ie, with a -3dB tone and no line driver I'll be out of steam. With a line driver on the output of the Droid I'll have ~4-5dB of room if things match theoretically. And if there is noise with the gains maxed (expected), I guess I'll need one. As for you Julian, pretty easy to figure out. Figure out the lowest voltage the Sundown requires to clip and make sure you have 4x that coming out of your headunit at the level that corresponds to the headroom you need for the music you have.

    Definitely too big.
