Ok, I am upgrading my system to all Polk SR series speakers, except with a DLS amp. I am currently running an Alpine IWA200 and wanted to go from it's 2volt ouput to something around five. I like the Alpine processor but it only offers four and DTS stuff that I have no interest in. Are there any other viable options out there for under $400, prefer under $300?

 

5 volt eclipse cd 3100, cd 5100, 1x din
8 volt eclipse cd 7100 1 x din
eclipse 2 x din are 5 volt
Rockford fosgate ravdvd1 5 volt
rockfor fosgate rfx 9420 8 volt

anything appealing to you

 

All you need is an active cross over. the alpine processor is just a really fancy cross over with a lot of other cool stuff, but you can find one for much less. I used an MA Audio 3 channel x-over that had 5 volt outs, but any good ACTIVE cross over should work well. It really made the difference for my system.

 

audiocontrol DQT or DQX digital processor would work, the dqt is a two channel 31 band eq plus built in line driver, able to boost the signal up to 7 or 9 volts, i forgot whcih, the dqx, is the dqt plus a three way full adjustable digital xover...also with built in line driver

those are my suggestions

Do you sale either Bing? Unfortunately I found the DLS locally for a crazy good price and had to take advantage of it. I keep trying to find things to buy from you. lol

Those options seem pricier than the Alpine, would they be superior or just another option to it? I rather not break my poor piggy bank more than that oinker already has been.

 

Would something like this be an improvement? Sorry, just trying to save where I can but gain some improvement. Basically it will be paired up with the Polk 6500 SR's, DLS RA50 amp, and the Alpine IWA200 all thrown in with a fiberglassed wheel well enclosure with either a 10" eD 11Ov or a 12" ID sub.

Audio Control Matrix is a simple 6 channel line driver.

 

i do acutally have a slightly used one for sale for around $300, a DQT that is...if you want, just PM me...

Would the JL Audio Cleansweep be a good alternative, just looking for something that I do not have to fidget with. I am leaning towards the Alpine or JL unit.
