[QUOTE="The_Quiet_One, post: 8525630, member: 614562"] The Helix DSP is solid although it appears they are coming out with a 2nd version of it sometime in the near future. I personally would've gone with Helix with my current build if I hadn't find such a great deal on a Fosgate 3sixty.3 Many current head units offered watered down versions of processing, but a DSP gives you the power and ability to really dial it in compared to most head units. Also if you're stuck on using stock head units it's really the best way to tailor the sound to your liking. As far as in depth discussions about DSP that's a difficult topic to cover succinctly. You have a lot more going into an install than just DSP settings. The DSP settings are actually dependent on your unique setup and even then they can't fix a lacking install. Jeff did cover a good intro in that thread. Topics I would look into would be the following: Driver Placement Sound Deadening Specs to look at when deciding on drivers for your install Time Alignment RTA-ing/Measuring your current system General tuning techniques Someone could easily write a small book on the topic, but really if you're just looking into incorporating a DSP into your current setup Jeff wrote a decent starting point. You can come back with more specific questions that make it easier for people to answer than trying to cover "all the things" in one go.
