Visit http://www.wcCarAudio.com *** The SMD Distortion Detector DD-1 - The ULTIMATE gain setting device for car audio amplifiers. Our product detects distortion down to 1%. Why is it better then the traditional Oscilloscope (for gain setting)? Because we are looking for distortion, not [just] clipping. If you used an O-scope to set your gains, chances are you already have experience and know what you are doing. Chances also are, unfortunately, that you set the gain with what you THOUGHT was a clean signal. The signal shown by the O-scope might look great, but is it DISTORTION free? This video shows a sine wave @ 1khz at 2% distortion. The sine wave looks like its good, NO clipping! But clearly, there is distortion in the signal. The DD-1 picks it up very quickly. Why? Because it does not detect clipping, it detects distortion. Try it yourself! Click here for the track (1khz @ 2% thd) https://www.onlinefilefolder.com/1s4AtVvhyhm5oK

Order yours today and set your gains like a PRO!!

  • FAKE.

    Or so I thought (no offence to you, Steve).

    I decided to try it myself... I downloaded the file, played it through my music player, and noticed there is a ~-36db 3khz tone in there via spectrum view.

    Hooked up my dd-1 just to see for my self and sure enough: got the same results as in the video.

    DD-1 for life!

  • Just ordered mine cant wait till it gets here!

  • Maybe it's just got messed up

  • @meade916 not exactly what i meant. i see what you are doing and i think its awesome. ive learned a lot from you but what i meant is to talk about a more technical aspects of it. like how crossovers work. what causes distortion, but thats just me. on a side note i will be posting a vid soon about my amp was hoping maby you could take a look at it and tell me if there is anything i can do about the rattle. from what i see your the man when it comes to rockford stuff.

  • That's pretty impressive. Looking at the scope, is the distortion shown as the little flickering along the edges if the line?

  • I got the DD-1 it's amazing now it's time to get the CC-1. :-)

  • Very good :D

  • @tvandiepen1 yea, but if its clipping, it is technically distorted, as the signal is not normal

  • I just ordered this two days ago. Should be here tomorrow hopefully! I have a few questions about it though. I have a 4 channel amp powering my 2 front door components and my 2 rear door coaxils, but my dash speakers are being powered by the head unit. When I find the distortion on my head unit is this going to damage my dash speakers at all? Because I REALLY don't feel like unhooking them. It's a bitch.

  • So, was this a problem or a good thing? I really didn't follow very well.
