hotshot27 Posted January 24, 2008 Report Share Posted January 24, 2008 I have been looking on ebay at the pre-amp equalizers. I am currently running two amps off a factory HU. From the Factory speaker outputs, I ran a high input into my mids/highs amp and a LOC into my subs amplifier. The sound is decent using the crossover on the amps, but i want to be able to tweek it a little more. I have seen many equalizers with lots of features and special things. I think I am looking for a basic 7-12 band equalizer with or without a visual display. I have seen the legacy, lanzar, panasonic, ultra linear, etc. and they are in the price range I can spend. {30 shipped} I know these arent the best to buy and I SHOULD save up for the right product but this is all I am willing to invest for quite some time. Basically, Is a lower end equalizer better than no Equalizer?

Basically, Is a lower end equalizer better than no Equalizer? yes but it wont last long. i guarantee it. spend about 50 and get a tad better one DD M4 Rockford Fosgate P500-4 SoundQubed HDC415 w carbon fiber cap 2 Rockford Fosagate T1675-S XS Power D3400 Under Hood XS Power D5100 in rear Michael Singer 200A Alt Build Log: http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/153901-2012-veloster-update-842013-wall-build-4-15s/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Team Bassick - Kimo Posted January 25, 2008 Report Share Posted January 25, 2008 Persaonally I hate Equalizers. more componenets the more chances for noise. But to each is own. I heard the Rockford 360 is good. Steve has used it. you might want to look into that. of course I always say get rid of the stock head unit but, again thats me personally.

hotshot27 Posted January 25, 2008 Author Report Share Posted January 25, 2008 I could justify up to 60 on an EQ, but not much more since my whole setup is still under $500 And I like the factory HU because if you look in the window of the car it all looks stock, but only the HU is.
