    Phone Bluetooth --> SPIDIF--> MiniDSP skipping factory head unit

    I have a MiniDSP in my car that's currently using my factory head unit's low level RCA outs. My factory head unit has quite a few bluetooth connectivity issues so I was thinking about possibly getting some kind of device that can connect to my phone's Bluetooth and then provide an RCA SPIDIF...

    Looking for good midbass speakers & crossover to pair with my Tymphany tweeters

    I don't want to get into the middle of the discussion that yall are having but I just wanted to say that yes I am fully aware that I need to install the drivers properly and sound deaden the doors. I have some sound deadener ordered already for the install. I was more asking the question of what...

    Would the Alpine MRV-F300 be okay to use with the Daytons? Looks like they are basically the same cutout size and depth as the Flutes.

    Will I need a signal processor with an Alpine MRV-V500 in my 2013 Chevy Volt?

    Ok thanks. I don't really ever have any passengers anyways. I don't mind ditching the rears if that's the best option. I don't want to go with too big of an amplifier for the fronts because I don't know what kind of effect it would have on the car and the charging system. It doesn't have an...

    Will I need a signal processor with an Alpine MRV-V500 in my 2013 Chevy Volt?

    I've been reading up on what the DSR1 does. Sounds like its exactly what I am looking for. I don't have a whole lot of space so it looks like a 6 channel amp and a dedicated subwoofer amp is out of the question. There's also really no way to keep the factory amp with the way I was going to do...

    I'm a little worried those would be too deep. I think the Silver Flutes are 2.95" deep and those look to be about 3.26". I'm not even sure the Silver Flutes will fit honestly. All I know for sure is 2.75" ones fit with a little room to spare according to someone on the Volt forums.

    If I got a 4 channel amp dedicated to the front stage and used the Rockford DSR1 I would be able to use that as an active crossover correct? I think that's the way I am thinking about going now. Something like 2 Alpine 445U's for power, one dedicated to the front stage and the second using 1 and...

    Will I need a signal processor with an Alpine MRV-V500 in my 2013 Chevy Volt?

    Cool thanks for the info. I don't mind messing around with it. Seems like it should do the job and is fairy inexpensive. The only thing I am concerned about now is a crossover for the midbass speakers. Since the Alpine is 5 channel I'm going to have to lump the front tweeters and the front...

    I was actually just looking at the DSR1 on the Rockford website. I think that would be a decent option. What kind of bugs does it have? I will take a look around and see if I can find more information on it.

    Will I need a signal processor with an Alpine MRV-V500 in my 2013 Chevy Volt?

    Okay so what DSP unit would work well in my situation? Whatever I use would have to be fairly small because I don't have a ton of room to work with so keep that in mind. I would prefer not to spend more than $300 on it but if I have to spend more I would consider it.

    I'm not against active however I don't have a whole lot of room to work with so the smaller the better. Honestly I've never done anything with active crossovers. I'm sure I could figure it out though. Anything you recommend?

    What do you use for a crossover with yours?

    Will I need a signal processor with an Alpine MRV-V500 in my 2013 Chevy Volt?

    The Volt and the SS have the same amp connectors. I actually found most of the info on how to build the harnesses on the SS forum. There are lots of people who have done the amp removal on the volt forums but they cut the plugs and that's not something I want to do. I'm going to do a full write...

    Looking for good midbass speakers & crossover to pair with my Tymphany tweeters

    Hi, I have a 2013 Chevy Volt and I am currently in the process of bypassing the factory Bose amp and upgrading speakers. I have another thread about that, Just looking for recommendations about speakers and crossovers here. I currently have Tymphany NE19VTS-04 tweeters installed in the...
