Back to the top for this question. I am interested to hear about this too. I read in another thread that if this were to work out, it could be an alternitive to the BT LLs. Sounds to me that for a few bucks less than the 4 channel LL set up you can have a ton more tunability. Is this a correct statement?
I'm looking through the manual for it now. I noticed this line that would be a plus for stock head units:
4-channel high-level inputs with signal sensing turn-on
Also dig this little tidbit:
Software controllable level attenuation on preamp and high-level inputs
Could this be something akin to the voltage adjustment that the Arc PSM has? I don't fully understand the terminology. It also claims to support Bluetooth audio streaming if you buy their bluetooth adapter. Looks pretty cool.

Its a very interesting piece of equipment. It has these features that could eliminate the use of the extra cash purchase of line levelers when using with stock head units. It looks like a easy to use (consumer friendly) dsp with some feature that can intrigue many looking to make the leap to improve sound quality without breaking the bank.

For what it is worth if you have a Rushmore running the stock headunit I would recommend going with the Arc PSM DSP.
The reason for the suggestion is on the Arc unit it can be wired up to have 2 different tunes 1 for accessory and 1 for a run tune.
If wired properly the arc will switch automatically to the run tune when the bike is started.
But you will have to have 2 different tunes programmed for this to be effective.
The other DSPs will normally hold more than 1 tune depending on unit,but has to be manually switched from the aux to the run tune.
