New year and I finally upgrade to a set of Wetsounds Rev 10 tower speakers. I seem to have encountered an issue I have never experienced before. I had a set of Wetsounds Pro 80's up there for the last 5 years running off a Syn 2. Granted I am not a stereo professional, but I have dabbled in some stuff over the years with success.
Scenario goes like this. We listen the speakers and they sound amazing. After about 10 minutes at higher volume, they seem to lose the clarity, go softer, and just sound like crap. I then lower the volume and in 5 seconds the clarity and sound kicks back up. Is this clipping? I thought clipping meant the signal completely disappears and the amps shut down. In this scenario the volume just goes to half and gets real muffled. My voltage is reading good. Power wire comes directly from my perko main to the amp in 8gauge. I set the gains like everyone mentioned by keeping the volume at 75%. I have zero distortion when I have it cranked up. I feel I am actually conservative on the gain setting, but again far from a professional ear.
The amp is an Arc Audio Ks 600.2 that is running off Clarion CMD5 with a Wetsounds 420 SQ. I used Stinger RCA's and used the factory 8 gauge power and negative leads.Amp is on High pass in mono mode. Any suggestions would be much appreciated
Trying to figure this out here and am little confused
