i thought of something and im not sure if it would work or how accurate it would be. i think my logic on this one is right, but the answer is wrong, as im sure someone would of already done it if it works...
but heres what im thinking:
an amp puts out an AC signal. when you clip the signal you are basically changing the signal to a DC signal. do you guys think it would work (and be accurate) to say hook up the dmm to read DC voltage, put in a 50hz tone blah blah blah (follow the gain tutorial) and then turn the gain up to until the dmm shows a dc voltage (clipping)?
i would think the dmm should pick up the dc voltage which would indicate clipping no?
just a thought i had while taking a dump this morning //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/fyi.gif.9f1f679348da7204ce960cfc74bca8e0.gif
