Ricky, yes of course I have a source playing.
I expect the amp to clip before I reach the pre-amps max gain. My Parasounds do have have clip indicators , only
Current Overload LEDs.
"The Current Overload LEDs for left and right channels will only illuminate if the unit is driven past its
maximum current capacity. These LEDs are not clipping indicators, but rather are designed to signal you
when you are exceeding the limits of your amplifier. If these LEDs light, it’s usually a sign that your
speaker impedance is too low, resulting in too much current draw from the amplifier's power supply. In
virtually all imaginable listening situations with recommended loads, these LEDs should never illuminate."
Anyways I know what clipping sounds like and I am not reaching that point as far as I can tell.
Really the SPL levels are irrelavant here...whats relevant is the Aragon cannot drive the Parasound to clipping.
Perhaps my speakers are such an easy load that the Aragon just does not have enough voltage output to push the amp?
I am going to ask Parasound Tech support and Wayne Parham at Pi Speakers for their opinions.
