Testing the Tester ️ SMD AMM-1 Audio Multimeter vs. Fluke375 Clamp + B2 Audio Rage 2500 Amplifier

The results of the Parker the Basshead video was pretty wild. I would like to see him do what you did. Use a clamp and scopemeter to use ohms law to show the accuracy of both meters. This would also show if the cheaper watt meter accurately detected clipping. I'm not sure how much electronics Parker knows, though. I use Fluke products every day at work. If the AMM-1 has the accuracy of a Fluke clamp meter, that would explain the high cost of the meter.

Lemme get a chair and some popcorn 😅🍿

Best of all Steve didn't even argue back or bash anyone , he let the meters do all the talking in his defense..totally professional! ! 💯

Professionally Handled!!! I don’t think SOME people really know what they’re doing in other videos!! You Da Man SMD!! Love your products!

wasn't parkers test watts.... like the difference between steves and the new one and the Big discrepancy between the two?

Questions answered...💯💯💯

I mean who are you gonna trust Steve (the creator of the meters and also SMD products) or people who barely started in car audio? Rhetorical question by the way. SMD for the win!

I run smd products in my tahoe and this video Made me a fan even more.

Great stuff as always. One day i will buy these tools and dial my stuff in proper

Excelente Test Steve, B2 lo mejor👍🏻

signing all those units at 6:05 in the morning and already been there almost 2 hours...I always appreciate that you guys chose SMD products so I gotta make sure i get it in and earn it. My crew does the same, they are amazing!

I only wish I could ever have just one of these. Such a great tool to have in your belt

Thank you. This video was not needed but succeeded. Get them haters outa here 🎉

The only real issue with the AAM1 is that it was reading way more power when it started to clip than the cheaper one... You never demonstrated that in this video.... I am not trying to be an ass or anything but that was the only real difference between the two...

Fluke is the best on the market yours is dead on with the fluke you know it's top notch meter I'm saving up to purchase your products

I own a DD1+ and a CC1. I purchased 2 rechargeable 9 volt lithium batteries for $13.99 off Amazon. Best upgrade to these good devices. No need to worry about having to purchase fresh batteries which I saw was a complaint. Does anyone know if these devices have firmware updates available and how to?

If you have any old DD1 laying around let me kno 😅

Steve great products keep the quality up. Love the B2 audio amps. When I saw your truck setup I decided to get rage 2500 also and love it.

Yea !! Clap back Steve

Exelent tools👍

I own the CC1 and DD1 and absolutely love them! Soon an AMM1 for my tool box coming soon.

Hell yeah, I love my CC-1 and DD-1+.... wish the DD-1+ was signed like my CC-1 but that is just a personal preference. Accurate as hell and work without question! Can't wait to add the IMSG and the AMM-1 one day soon. Cheers!

I wouldn't tune any amp without my DD-1 or my CC-1, money well spent in my opinion...

A bluetooth version of the amm1 would be sick af

Nice video

When I watched those other 2 videos about your dd1 and am1 I had no doubt which of the tools was off. Everyone's a hater. If you buy something with SMD on the label your getting the best of the best. SMD stands for quality and excellence. Love everything you and your company produce. Thanks for all the amazing products.

BEST TOOLS EVER! SMD FTW!

Well that solved it lol

I know why you made this. Thanks for making this. People jump to conclusions without letting the other party defend themselves. Very childish. My meter works great! Thanks Steve!

DD1 + CC1 For the win

This guy is a genius for coming with this

❤ my DD1

Die SMD Werkzeuge sind gut gemacht und mit Sicherheit wohl durchdacht. Aber das Kabel mit dem Poti könnte besser sein indem man das mit zwei Halbschalen einfasst um ein Griffstück zu erzeugen!
Aber mal ehrlich, das wäre das einzige was ich machen würde. Echt geiles Zeug 👌🏻👍🏻

If you know than you know

Do I set my gains on my amp for my subs first or do I set my lc2i first. I'm new to trying to do things right. Any help would be appreciated. I have the dd-1.

My guy!💪 Sometimes folks just gotta take their L.

Yo, your tools are dope and do work precisely as intended and perfectly.

Steve another good point is that ppl use cheap batteries in them I remember you recommended that you run Duracell in them. Idk I just love music

So who started shit again

Any opinions on ds18. Amps ?

DeasNuts wya 😂. - watt a loser
Wel done Steve

So i can get a 150$ clamp meter and run the same test as the SMD ?

around 2.2ohms DC 1.75-2ohm AC lots on inductance on the coil is it an aluminum coil former ? and or a shorting ring

I knew they was right on spec but i would guess if your 9 volt battery was low it might throw it off some **Maybe**

I figured the AMM-1 was the more accurate one. But I think the BHG meter is just more practical as far as mounting it up front to monitor your system on the go. But like the old saying goes “you get what you pay for” 🤷🏾‍♂️. If Steve was to come out with a more portable version to mount up front it would sell out over night for sure 💪🏾💪🏾. Keep Doing what you doing Steve 🔊🔊💨💨

👏👏great stuff👍👍

You're the man Steve, and you always hit hard in the end. SMD 4 THE WIN 🎉🎉❤

You are covering up the real problems and flaws with this kind of videos... The real issue isn't with voltage or current measurements, but with the wattage calculation, especially when dealing with Brazilian amplifiers. Latest Subs & Paws video is excellent example.. 210A x 9V at DC input of the amplifier = 3800w+ at amplifier output.. yeah right..
