HU clipping @ 65%?

O-scope would be nice....but $$$

You ever test a Kenwood Exceleon for the volume before clipping?

dmm testing of rca is ac, shielding to center pole?

VAC yes, 0dB 1kHz tones, 0dB 40Hz on the subout.

Lost me on that one....can you explain in a little further detail?

I know the Alpine sub outs are variable....but do most manufacturer's also make the RCA's variable so that you have to turn them just below clipping to get the full voltage out of them?

I haven't seen any decks that had varible RCA outs for front and rear only on the sub channel.

Nope.

No shit? Only $129? Most decent DMM's cost more than that

Is that the one you have? Hard to use or pretty self-explanatory?

Yes, it's what I use and is accurate. hook it up and press 'auto' the thing does the work for you.

when you test voltage on rca's, you have to place one probe on the shielding and the other on the center pole, and read vac on the dmm

And you just play your test tones and set the gains and it'll let you know when clipping occurs?

yes

Well I was shopping for a new DMM....guess I'll get this instead.

So even a semi-dummy like me can use it properly, huh?
