Default Frequency question

Hi was wondering stinger 600.4 amp the frequency dial markings dont seem right to me they go from 50 - 500hz so i would assume 12 o clock would be 225hz but the dial isnt even close to 225 am i missing something it looks like 12 o clock is 100hz.I know people will say just use dial settings but they dont look right?

The only true way to tell that I know of is to put an O'scope on the outputs with the target frequency tone as the input and watch the scope trace.

Could try this method. I have never used it (because I have a CC1 meter to dial in crossovers).

For sure. If you end up trying it out, let us know how it works for you. I'm interested to see.

Do you agree that the dial setting do not look right?

You could also use this as excuse to get a DSP for the system, as cheap or as expensive as you want. After using a DSP I dont think Ill ever not have one, just for the exactness and ease of set up.
