Depends on budget.I have never seen an 8 channel head unit, but the more experienced installers could tell you better.You will need 6 channels for the front stage and 1or 2 for subs.anythingforreal wrote:looking for a dsp or headunit that will give me both left and right eq,2-4 way crossover with adjustable lp to hp 6db-24db slopes ,individual time alignment along with indiviual gain and phase control and a good voltage output along with a good enough signal to noise ratio and a upfront controller. Any recommendations?
my amps are -2 jl audio 300/4 and a jl audio 500/1
mids and highs to still be determined as well as sub
lookking to do a 3 way front stage.

Rovin wrote:i not any expert on DSP but from what i see is mostly 2 types : d big dial with a small screen budget type & d type that requires a laptop\screen device to set it up
all yall have to do is watch a YT of either type & u will understand d basics, as with anything else d more expensive models will have features\options on them some of which u may\may not need depending on ur system design & budget obviously
some of these companies will allow u to DL d software for their d laptop type dsp so u can go thru it & see how it is b4 u even buy their product
btw - cheapest dsp i have seen wud be a an unbranded dial knob type on alibaba for us$36up & most expensive i heard of wud be from about 8 mths ago when dean of 5 star installed a us$6000 brax in a $ is not a problem all out system ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bIgjQd7APtY

jes a few mths back i designed\built a box for a padna that i tested in my wagon b4 i give him it so i know it performs excellent but it sounding offkey in his ride, i noticed it instantly & went into his settings, man had his lpf @ 40hz yes , eq looking all how along with some of other settings
he couldnt explain how it was that & nobody doh play up with his high end kenwood deck with alot of features, then he have a RF dsp which he really uses as a line driver - he never made d time to tune it half way self, imo he really didnt need d dsp with what that deck has in it ... he shud know alot better since he does know some stuff & used to be around me

Men who never needed a preamp running it still just because "mUh LiNe dRiVe" or "yuh cud fine tune d settings better", then end up fine tuning it worse than before .
A DSP magnifies your skill as a tuner/installer. It doesn't improve it.
It highlights what you do/don't know.
It can make your system sound real good or absolutely shite.
