[QUOTE="Ryan Lantzy, post: 18717, member: 7"] Regardless of what the Camco's use to do, if you think about it for a while you'll understand that it's essentially the same result. If you have a device that lowers the gain of the input based on some threshold (arbitrary level, comparison of distortion, etc) you essentially have some compression going on. Sure, the attack, release, and hold may be different for all these brands of amps, but what the Camco's are doing is neither special nor novel. You can use that expectation to help justify the cost, but personally I wouldn't pay a premium for good clip limiters (unless they are of the kind that are in the iTechs). I don't have Camco clip limiters and I've never lost a driver due to overpowering it through some occasional clipping. [/QUOTE]
