Digital Processors
Out of curiosity, are any of the guys on here running a Digital Processor with their system? I am considering add one with the hopes of counteracting the factory 6.5 head unit. As much as I like my Focal and Hertz speakers with the 2 Diamond Micro's, I wonder how could sound with ST35's and 165.1's in the fairing and another set in the lids. The lids would require me to fabricate new adapters and such. I would be looking a HDP amp to push all or even 2 amp. I would mount the ST35's in the glovebox's and amp/s and processor in the bags.
Thank

the issue with the JL Fix is that for 365 bucks you can not adjust the settings, you need another 300 dollar part to access those settings. If I'm adding a true DSP then I'd like to be able to adjust it....that's kinda the point

To be clear we do not sell the jl fix 86. I actually agree with haze that if I can't adjust it what's the point in having it. Now there are other dips out there that can be used that will do a pretty good job. However my 1st and for most recommendation will always be to junk the crappie boom head unit and go aftermarket.

Hmmm $665 bucks for a DSP? Not a "FIX" if it breaks the bank! Money better spent on a great amp or good speakers. Not to mention a solid HU!

I think there's a lot of negative towards the JL FiX, it is what it is...
You pay $150 for the BT Line Levelers that have fixed capacitors to squash the dreaded EQ curve, the MOCO counters with another curve that renders the Line Leveler useless (hypothetical)
You pay $350 for a JL FiX that can be reprogrammed if the MOCO changes the curve. If you'd like to add the TwK for full system tuning then you have that option.
Again, it is what it is and it does it's job if that's the route you want to take.
Yes, something like a Fosagte 3.sixty.3 would be a better choice for a true DSP.
I looked at doing a FiX and a TwK and decided I'd rather spend the money on a new head unit and be done with it. So far I'm MUCH happier

So within the next couple of weeks I will install this and auto tune it with the bike running to eliminate any BS that Harley has programmed in the radio when it runs. Also since the front 2 channels are a better sq on these bikes (thanks to HK/HD for whatever stupid reason the come up with) I will only be using the 2 front channels going to 4 out since I've not used fade control on anything I've ever owned.
Granted this is not a new head unit, as that would be a hell of a lot better option, but for $200.00 it's worth the try. And yes, I already own 2 btll and while I like them I still want another option that has a better customization possibility no matter what a persons setup is.
