[QUOTE="Jeffdachef, post: 8512676, member: 650438"] If you go dsp which costs a lot more, your results can be a lot better than most head unit setups on the market. If you put like 10+ hours of tuning into it. Usually 3 way front stage actuve capable plus subwoofer. Which means you can crossover midbass, midrange, tweeter and subwoofer along with time aligning each driver individually and individual EQ as well. Basically complete control ofver your audio setup which allows for a perfect tune if tuned right. Its very extensive and has a pretty big learning curve. All you need to add one is the dsp itself, pc, the speaker drivers and the amp. 2 way active will just be tweeters and mids so a 4 channel amp would be adequate and would require 3 pairs of rcas from dsp to monoblock and 4 channle. 3 way active which is midbass, midrange and tweeter, youll need a 6 channel amp or a 4 channel amp and a smaller 2 channel for the tweeters. About 4 pairs of rcas needed for this You will get signal from your current head unit(no need to swap) via one pair of RCA to the dsp, then with proper amount of rcas to the amps. Youll need to run wires for power, ground and remote. Then you tune with the PC. Thats it. [/QUOTE]
