Anyone Ever Use Alpine Imprint?


Recommended Posts

Posted

Specifically the Alpine PXA-H100 for my model deck.

Whats your review on it?

is it worth the extra money for me to buy?

I'm probably going to pair it with the Clarion EQS746 for complete control.

Ive never got to mess around with one, tho from everything Ive read and what people say they are hella nice and well worth the money.

However depending on what imprint kit you buy you will need to buy the software seperatly to do any fine tuning.

But like I said Im very interested in getting one soon, I almost think its one of the best processors out there, unless you can find a 701.

I have it. well... the KTEX-100 EQ ( I think thats the right model number ) , check my threads in my sig. I love it. I can tell you I would never be able to tune my system to this sound with just a naked ear and a voltmeter. Which, Is all I have in that area.

The only thing is, If you have your input voltage set too high on your amps for your mids and highs, the imprint will limit the volume to prevent clipping. My deck hits its highest volume at 28-29 out of 35. I tried going at my four channel with a voltmeter to get it set right , and I thought I had it, but the deck and the imprint kinda prove that I dont.

Also , if you dont turn the input voltage way down on your sub amp before running the imprint, it will muffle your subs ALOT.

DIYMA forums has a great thread on the imprint. About 25 or 30 pages now. Worth a read.

I will be using the Imprint software on my 9887 pretty soon. From all the reviews I have read it seems like a hit or miss. You have to really know your stuff in order to use it properly.
