Postby shevondover » October 7th, 2017, 4:59 pm

Good day all , I have a pioneer avh 4800bs and a powerbass xma 5 channel amp. I'll like opinions on if I should install a preamp or crossover in between head unit and amplifier or both

Nope, waste of money, you have sufficient processing already.

The deck alone has enough processing. You might not even need to adjust the controls on the amp :lol:


-Time alignment
-13band EQ with an autoEQ if you have the microphone
-Built in cross over
And more

If you put a preamp you'd get fingertip controls, but how often you really going to be adjusting really?
Audio settings should be a set and forget kinda thing.

That amp should come with a Bass Remote control too I think.
