Phoenix Gold Phorum

Im looking for a head unit for around 150 bucks that has highpass crossovers for the internal amp. Im putting a subwoofer in an aztec that me and my old lady just bought and since I dont drive it much I really dont feel like putting in the time of installing new components and running wires to them. Im sure i will eventually being that the rsd components are so cheap but right now is a negative. Im just going to be running one boston g3 12 off of half of my 200.4, or maybe my 1200.1 on my IDmax, but I really want to cross the factory speakers over to because she WILL drive them to distortion. For some reason i cant get her or her friends to understand "We dont need no stinkin bass boost" Which is why Ive thought about the Idmax, which I could adjust the gains with head unit bass boost and avoid damage to any of my stuff. I found a Pioneer that has a 2 way crossover network and am just not sure if it works on the internal amp or just the pre-outs. Any info, guidance, criticism to my laziness will be much appreciated


Edit: ok I found a kenwood

It has "System E's" crossover network. Some of you kenwood savvy guys know if this will fit my bill. Ive been wanting to try a kenwood

Edit 2: Yeah I know im an idiot. Just found this jewel.

And it clearly states in specs for speakers and preamps. Cha-ching. Input still very welcome. Thanks all

the 1st on aint bad for 150 it has 24 bit D/A converters but only 2v preouts

I have a cheap audio control line drive to fix that problem or i have a extra white tba1 sender and receiver with matching # box and cord

Yeah Ive got an extra line driver. It looks like a pretty decent player. Im wondering if the usb port will read my external hard drive. I have like 60 Gb's of music on it.

Im sure it will
shit now you have me wondering if my 60g will be read on my clarion 585usb tv/dvd deck...hmmm

hell thanks waynehead.......i think im gonna pick 1 of those ups for myself and add a line driver

All in the day of a towel my friend.

Oh and for the record I have used woofersetc.com before and never had a problem with them.

yeah Im hoping so, it would be better than messing with the DAC in my tiny little ipod. Plus I have a 320Gb external as well that I could put all my music on
