Alex M Posted June 5, 2022 Author Report Share Posted June 5, 2022 I wouldn't say that I'm a DS-18 fan, I just like putting everything in a cart and seeing the subtotal so I have a ballpark idea of what to save for. I've heard alot of good things about their Korean made amps and that's my main thing I like about them, I'm still fairly new to the audio world in general so I don't know every good brand out there, my other reasoning for picking DS-18 is price, but like I said I don't know about many other "SPL" brands so I don't know if there are other options pricewise.

Well, I didn't mean anything negative by that. Sorry if it came out that way. I don't know how the prices match up to DS-18, but some other "inexpensive" brands that still have a decent reputation are (at least in my opinion) Skar Deaf Bonce B2 Audio (they have some good prices on quality amps) Sky High Car Audio speakers are supposed to be pretty good Avatar Soundigital Resilient Sounds SSA (Sound Solutions Audio) Crossfire Cresendo C.A.B (car audio bargain) U.S. Acoustics American Bass That's just what comes to mind right now. 2011 Chevy Silverado under construction My build log here.

Alex M Posted June 5, 2022 Author Report Share Posted June 5, 2022 Oh I wouldn't say that I took it negative in any way, I just wanted to express how I am not bound by preference to a singular brand and am open to other options. I'm sorry if it seemed as though I took it offensively Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex M Posted June 5, 2022 Author Report Share Posted June 5, 2022 My other reason for DS-18 is I want to stand out, if that makes sense, JerryAintLoud said it best in a video but basically, I wanna draw heads at a competition and not fall in line with all of other sundown-s and skar-s if that makes sense Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dafaseles Posted June 5, 2022 Report Share Posted June 5, 2022 That makes sense. So, what about the audio Control DSP's didn't you like? 2011 Chevy Silverado under construction My build log here. Check it out! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex M Posted June 5, 2022 Author Report Share Posted June 5, 2022 Nothing, I like Audio Control I just don't know what type of DSP I need, I know I don't need one with the amp built in I just need the low, mid and high output but I don't know what has exactly what I'm looking for.

Alex M Posted June 5, 2022 Author Report Share Posted June 5, 2022 Just by looking I wanna say the Audio Control DQDX has everything I need but I'm not sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dafaseles Posted June 5, 2022 Report Share Posted June 5, 2022 Well, the SQ guys will tell you you should put each speaker on its own channel. I don't know how much that applies to people who are using them for SPL crossover purposes. What had unit are you using? Does it have multiple RCA outputs? Does it have a built in crossover network? You might not even need a DSP 2011 Chevy Silverado under construction My build log here. Check it out! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex M Posted June 5, 2022 Author Report Share Posted June 5, 2022 I wanna say boss, but it isn't that it only has a single rca output and that's it, I plan on getting a different one that has all of the rca outputs and touchscreen and whatnot.
