I have a question about the decible output on subs. How can you tell when the sub is at a high enough db level to damage your hearing? Well, an obvious sign would be if its painful, but is it just me or does bass at high levels still seem somewhat comfortable. (I dunno if that made any sense)

Is there a cheap db level reader out there?

 
Different people have different ears //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif IF you turn your stereo off and your ears are ringing. It's a good sign that your listening to loud. As far as cheap meters I havn't found any that are reliable yet, but I'm still looking.

 
You can buy an AudioControl Epic-150 for $300 retail. It is an in-dash Epicenter with a SPL and Voltage display. It's also only half a din size.

LOL - mine was a higher end model too - iirc deh-9300. Low mileage too, it was sitting around for year collecting dust.

One or two, they are still subwoofer outs and are mono summed signals from both left and right. Even the 2 RCA subwoofer pre-outs on the 2nd one...

Nothing to add to this, Just wanted to say good luck and that I miss MiniDisc. OH!! Is that a Japanese Radio Tuner or does it get stations in the US?
