    HU with SIMPLE interface, needs to be used basically blind.

    SO, I need to put in a single din head unit into a vertical between-the-seats box in a 1996 Jeep Wrangler. Fancy multiple-button digital screens and such just aren't visible without contortions. No amp, not much of an audiophile, so a higher powered unit would be nice. Frankly, an amp or any...

    The jl will be pushing 80 or 100 watts rms, both sets of speakers are the same, should be OK? Sent from my SM-G925V using Tapatalk

    Hmm, the MS-8 has what, 40 watts per channel... Will that work with an amp? Does it have pre-amp outs?

    Hmm, the alpine, plus the remote comes to like 800, not sure I care about processing THAT much at this point, sounds like something for after I replace speakers, add sub and an amp. I may well be interested in the used MS-8 though, much better price point. And I DO like the potential to have it...

    I figured the sub would have it's own amp   ---------- Post added at 08:49 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:48 PM ----------   31 band eq? is that accessible? or goes it autoeq somehow but call it 31 band?
