[QUOTE="The Camry, post: 8559070, member: 657974"] So i was thinking. There are lots of bass knobs and amps with clip indicators but no one really has any idea how they work. Now im thinking strictly for bassheads and people who are playing a vast variety of bass heavy or boosted songs. You just dont know whats clipped and what recording level each song is and so on. Alot of us vet our libraries to make sure we don't have badly recorded or modified music as well but i was thinking. What if you wanted to be 100% sure all the time that you weren't sending a bad signal to your subs. There is always the case of setting your gains at -0db but holy crap that output loss is atrocious. So what can we do. Im thinking alot of people have a Dso Nano but the base probe wont register the higher voltage of anything like 500 rms or more. Heck, could be even lower. i'm not sure the math behind it. [B]Could we take one of these. Which is a 10x probe with a weird connector.
