Big D Unregistered guest | Is there a head unit out there where I can control the crossovers. I want to experiment with rear fill, midbass. I also would rather have my crossovers done digitally at the HU instead of some tiny knob on the amp or some external crossover. I know alpine has something like the mean freequency setting for a channel. What brand of HU offers the most prcise control.? I am more of a Home audio guy and was wondering if car audio can offer the same control. Glass? thanks |

There are all kinds of equalizer settings and two modes - pro mode and easy mode for your equalizers and time alignment. It's a great HU even though I don't really use the pro mode. I don't need it with the speakers I have. Crappy stock speakers. But I think it is like a 10 band parametric equalizer. |

I personally prefer to use outboard processing for all of that if I can, but if you want it all packed into a head unit the Eclipse CD8454 may be a good bet for ya. |
