[QUOTE="blazian87, post: 8678610, member: 574798"] Do you not understand how obsolete a 7 band graphic eq is? People used to rave about that Clarion like baaack in the day... I admit I used to be one of those people. Made sense to put it in old classic cars with a crappy headunit. Any modern headunit already does more than that Clarion does. What I don't understand is why spend thousands on nice equipment when you have a crappy signal to begin with? That's the night and day difference that you will notice even if you don't change anything else. You need to check out the new Dayton DSP that just came out not long ago. It's only $150 and it's been selling like hotcakes.

Dayton made the perfect solution of having all the perks without the huge price tag. It comes with a 10 band parametric eq per channel! Do you know what you can do with that?! and it comes with practically all the same features the high end DSP's have. Now about the front speakers being loud enough for the whole cabin.. You can certainly make it loud enough; that will depend on if you have adequate amp power and whether or not you're using a high quality signal. Also, just by going fully active, it can really help make your whole sound stage louder and clearer. [/QUOTE]
