limiting question

#1 Post by laits »

What are the negatives when consistently hitting the limiter on the dcx2496 both with subs and tops, besides unpleasant sounding? Will it hurt speakers and/or piezos? Is it normal to bounce off the limiter during a show?

No.

On occasion it's normal. If it's doing it all the time turn down.
