Are you dead set on the ms8?

I have a friend selling an Audison Bit 10 if interested.

I don't have an MS8, but I do have a Bit Ten ($350) and Bit Ten D ($500) brand new.

I hear the auto tune is remarkable on the ms-8 which is the only reason I am leaning towards it

Remarkable huh? Meh, same with most autotunes as far as I am concerned. Do you not want to tune your own equipment or just do not have the know-how to go about doing it?

I like the idea of having a starting pint from which to tune from. I have been doing this for a long time both in car audio and my dj systems over the years but I am not great at the time alignment part of it.

Trust me just because of the physical size of the ms-8 I wish I could go with something else.IF I do bite the bullet what is recommended over or at same lvl as the MS-8

If I remember correctly, you cannot change the settings of the auto tune after you use the ms8 auto tune feature.

Time alignment takes work and there are tons of tutorials online for it my man!

The bit ten is on the same level if I were to make a comparison.

I love my MS-8! but its true, you don't have near as many tuning options on the MS-8. I think it does a nice job on the automatic time alignment and it gives you a nice flat sound to start with. 32 bands and the crossover options are good enough for me //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif but if you place the tweeters too high, it reads them funny //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif

Ok so when I get back to the office ill read up on the difference from the audison units

 

[joselr3668 10+ year member]

Ok so looking at it if I go with audison I would need a BIT one.1

 

[joselr3668 10+ year member]

I could always go with an arc PS8 But I cant find either one anywere I might have to settle for a 360.3. I want a unit with 6 rca input and 8 out

I would suggest looking for the rockford three sixty.3

I would suggest looking for the rockford three sixty.3

I know the 3sixty.3 would be cheaper and I think its smaller and easier for me to install(size wise) but is there that much of a difference from the 3sixty.3 to a Bit one.1? Is it something I am going to notice if I am not going to compete in SQ. Its just for my ears and I do have an aftermarket H/U. I know I can get away with an Audio-control 6xs but I figured I would up it a notch and get something with time alignment and eq

why not just go with a DEH-80PRS?

why not just go with a DEH-80PRS?

I have a radio allready plus I need something that has 6 in and 8 out. 4 out for front stage 2 for rear and 2 for sub
