Yea me too. Like the fact that I can't turn my lpf off for my subs so how does that work?

Well I was wondering how many sets of outs do you need? Can I sell my 9855 and go back to a basic deck since that should handle all my processing? And how should you set your amps since all of the cross over's are handles by the Ms8

It looks like it can take up to 4 sets of inputs. But I think it'll do the same with less. Since its really made for factory systems which mainly are only 2 simple channels anyway. I was wondering about the xovers too. I can turn my mids n high xovers off but my sub xovers ccan't be turned off. I'm also wondering how to control the volume since the ms8 has volume control too.

The volume I think can be either way... But even the nicest decks have 3 sets of outs so how are you supposed to setup a 4 way system? Does it just need on set in and then it splits from there?

it has 8 jacks in and 8 jacks out (4 sets in, 4 sets out) so 4 way, you just assign em according however you hook em up to the ms8

it might very well be, but I know I'm very picky about my sound especially when I'd like to have it ready for SQ comps every once in a while. While I'm sure the imprint is better than no processing at all, I just think if I'm gonna buy a processor; might as well do it right the first time instead of getting one only to upgrade later down the road. Thats all I've been doing with all of my equipment really. Thats why this time I'm doing as much research as i can before I buy anything for this setup.
