that rf thing looks cool. wtf else do you have to have to run it though? doesnt seem to be "stand alone"

Just needs one set of RCA's then it will go out to 3 or 6 amps from there. Also a positive, negative and remote for power. Each channel can be specified to a different setting.

Only thing it doesn't have is time alignment (or whatever the hell it is called).

I LOVE mine. I'll never give it up.

phase?

No i'm thinking of the setting that some higher end head units have to delay the sound from different speakers to make the soundstage sound better.

I'm amped up on energy pills ready for the gym so I'm a bit at a loss for words.

you want 100 shipped?

the steeper(higher number) the slope/octave, the quicker frequencies will be cut above/below set frequency.
so if you have a steeper slope per octave, then you can tune the frequency closer to the speaker's limit....

say you set a hpf to 100hz: a steeper slope (assume 30db/octave)means that 50 hz(one octave below 100hz) will be decreased in output by an equivalent of 30db.

once again hpf @ 100hz: this time a shallow slope (assume 15db/octave) means that 50hz will be decreased in output by an equivalent of 15db.

output wise, the steeper slope(30db/octave) will create less sound @ 50hz than the 15db/octave slope

this can be said continuously down the frequency range by octaves

So is an octave always 30hz???

In music, an octave is the interval between one musical pitch and another with half or double its frequency.
So one octave lower than 30 Hz is 15 Hz, and one octave higher than 30 Hz is 60 Hz. One octave higher than 60 Hz is 120 Hz, one octave higher than 120 Hz is 240 Hz, and so on...

When referring to crossover slopes (e.g. 12 dB/octave or 18 dB/octave, etc), we are dealing with sound pressure level as well as frequency. If we take a subwoofer and set a low-pass filter (crossover) at 80 Hz, with a 12 dB/octave slope, then we know that at 160 Hz (one octave higher), the sub's output will be down 12 dB.

i'm glad to see i'm not the only dumbass. it's coming together though. i see where its going now.

i love to learn new shit, so i'll probably read more on this shit tomorrow when i get to work.

Someone just sold a yellow DQX w/ dash controller on here the other day for like $150. I about shit myself.

i saw that //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif

wow, the controller is worth that ........

I would look for an A/C EQX, shouldn't be that bad cost wise

So, if you have get a 30 band parametric eq, would you still need crossovers then?

i didnt read any of the replies but i got a kicker 30 band eq for around $150 and i love it... from sonic electronix.. they also have an MA one (yea i know ma) but it has a ton of features for roughly the same price
