My amp clipping led goes on on bass sections - can I avoid it without

by Morris <maurycy.s@[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Mar 12, 2008 at 08:53 AM

Hello all,

I've found this newsgroup on google search so I'm posting a question
here.

I've recently connected an amplifier to my car's front speakers and
although it pushed the clipping threshold higher (louder) I was hoping
still something could be made about it.

I've bought a pair of Infinity 16 cm speakers (60W RMS each) and
connected it to some JVC head unit. The head unit produces 19W RMS
power on each channel, and some distortion appeared heard at volume 30
(of 50) .

So after digging through Internet resources I've learnt that most
probably my speaker is underpowered and the distortion is actually
generated by the head unit itself.

I've bought an old second hand ampliflier - dual channel Legacy
branded - which is supposed to produce 2x100W of RMS power.

I've connected everything and although it is working and the sound is
louder, if I set my balance to more bass the clipping LED blinks with
each bass kick. At the same time distortion is heard in the speaker.

So I started wondering - is there actually a way of pushing the head
unit volume close to it's peak without any distortions? Or what can I
do?

I look forward to your replies and in the meantime I'll keep driggin
through wikipedia and different forums.

Regards,
Morris
