I recently installed an Orion HCCA 5000 amp. The bass knob (remote gain control) has a light to indicate the amp is clipping. However, the "clipping" light lights up pretty much every time the subs are hitting hard.
How accurate is that light? Is it actually detecting DC voltage every time the clipping light illuminates? I could know for sure with my oscilloscope, but the neighbors likely prefer I ask the internet instead. Maybe I'll test with my 'scope and post my results to this thread at a later date.
