Alpine PXA H701, PXA-H800
Zapco DSP8
Arc Audio PS8
Soundstream Synthesis
Audison Bit 1
Helix P-DSP , C-DSP
Rockford Fosgate 360.3


All of these have 4 pairs of outputs that are each configurable to do anything, with separate equalisers per channel, time alignment, crossovers, etc etc, and all of these are configurable from your laptop.

I think that the Mosconi DSP 6to8 can also be a very good option

And it maybe be the only one in stock and available locally from an Authorized Dealer

Actually...no...the P80RS can only run 3 way active. Most of these including the Zapco will do a 4 way active output.

Yup, but it depends on what the OP have in mind for his system design.. I have the 80PRS and just love the ability to run 3 way active from up front..

Of all of the options I listed. The Zapco, Helix, and Alpine have the very vest user interfaces.

Look at the Zapco closer, Im sure Aarian can give you a great deal.

These are screenshots of the DSP 6to8's GUI, you can be the judge, or even better yet you can demo one locally as mentioned before.

I'm sure that the Zapco is awesome as well.

You can probably search on other forums for reviews as well, as the international guys may have already used both and may be able to give some further feedback.

^^^ Interesting link.

The link is to a post made by a Team mate of mine. Jim Becker, aka "Big Red".

He does not have the 6to8 installed nor does he use mosconi amps.

Personally I have owned the 6to8 for just over a year. I have picutres of it here:
http://www.mktrinievents.com/forum/phpB ... =26&t=7099

That 6to8, is firmware 1.0, the very first. without a doubt, the 6to8 gui is not the best. Read more on the same link on the mk forum.

The Zapco gui is very well laid out.
http://www.zapco.com/zapcoprocessors.html
http://www.diymobileaudio.com/forum/gen ... -dsp8.html

And it should be a lot cheaper than the 6to8, with a map msrp of 420.00 us vs the 6to8 dsp msrp of 799.00.

The international guys seem to agree its the best out there.

Based on what I've seen, I prefer the interface of the Audison. The interface of the Helix unit seems a little more complex, but the unit itself offers a little more functionality (at least a little more than the Bit one.)

I second this... the Audison has a really nice GUI and has done the job processor wise for me...

I would like to, but the Helix was on the market long after I bought my Bit One, and I'm in no hurry to change.

Will let you all know how that works out.
