    6.5 Inch speakers

    Can someone assist in advising which of these would be the better purchase when around the same price, to be paired with Audiofrog GS25's. Was hoping to get SB Acoustics SB17's but seems to be an issue getting them here anytime soon, https://www.audiotec-fischer.de/en/helix/speakers/p-6b...

    6.5" Speaker Recommendations for $200-$300 for Front Stage

    Helooo, what did you think of the SB17's? Is the paper version holding up in your doors? I am also thinking of getting these but maybe the propylene version and some Audiofrog GS25.

    optical spdif

    I have a dsp with optical spdif input. What would be the best easiest way to make use of this so I can bypass my factory stereo? I listen mainly via my phone using android auto at present. Are there usb-c convertors or standalone players that have optical outs? Cheers

    Budget DSP - Factory Headunit

    Dayton DSP-408 v Pioneer DEQ-S1000A I believe that the dsp-408 is over all a better unit and much more configurable, but the Pioneer has a calibration function to de eq factory adjustments which is what I am looking for. Does anyone have any experience with the pioneer unit and its "de eq" and...
