W.T.K which processor to use

Postby shanemoon » June 30th, 2014, 9:08 pm

Would like a little help here with my system I will be running a 4 amp system as follows
System would consist of a 4channel amp on 4 door speakers a 2 channel amp on a pair of 10's another 4 channel amp on drivers and tweeters and finally a mono on bass would like to know any recommendations on what processor should I use in this system to achieve the best tunning points

Thanks

6XS..

Subwoofer output to the mono
Rear HP to the 4 door speakers
Front HP to the tweeters and drivers
Front LP (which is actually a bandpass filter) to the 10"s

I much prefer the chip version of Audiocontrol products over the digital processors, like their DQXS etc.. The 6XS is a great unit

Care to say why? Because I had a trunk mount epi but bought an indash epi and to my opinion I like better... knowledge is power!

I was comparing the 6XS to the DQXS.. not trunk mount to in dash. I had a DQXS and hated it! Lots of good reasons why too!

What do you all think about a audio control exq as opposed to a 6xs

The EQX is just a 2 way crossover with Equalizer features. Cannot compare to the 4 way crossover of the 6XS, which is more suited to what you want..

You can actually use a amd am3 processor, with a mini itx main board.
A 128GB SSD harddrive, 8 GB DDR3 ram, and a good creative sound card and kX project audigy/EMU drivers.An enclosure may be a problem, but you can check the site mp3 car for more info. Once you have your pc constructed, with your dc to dc adaptor, you can power it on.
After you can install Windows 7 and choose either winamp, foobar, with a host of different out plugins but the kX drivers allows you to tweak the sound to your liking.

If you feel like dj'ing from your car pc you can install virtual dj.

Hope this helps

I was talking bout audiocontrol products: chip vs normal. And in epi I like normal.

If all you need are crossover features, use the on-board crossovers on the amplifiers.
