Default DD DSI-2 Users

Gonna make the change from the Arc PSM to the DSI-2. Wondering for you that are running this who is using the remote
controller and where you have it mounted. I’m still running the stock HU so prefer to still have two tunes. Can’t make myself
change to a different HU just yet. Appreciate any insight if where you have it mounted.

I persoanlly dont use the remote, but it should be very easy to come up with an acceptable solution. Maybe even hidden in a glove box or bag depending on your bike.
as far as the unit, i like it a lot more than the psm.

I am not using the remote. I ran a usb cable into the glove box, and it's looked in fairing so I can pull it out when want to make adjustments with a PC

My horns are not on the dsp as I’m out of channels. Running them off a loc and the HU fade and
they just aren’t where I want them to be sound wise.

I want the remote so I can change between tunes without having to hook up to a laptop, so I don't have the 10's blasting going down the road for no reason, plus the added easy access to 6 different presets.

This is sort of my reasoning as well as I have a different tune for riding and parking lot pimping. I actually have my bags turned up for riding versus parked so I want the flexibility. I am also not using BT module so this will
do what I need.

there are ways to achieve this with the psm depending on the rest of your system. The DD is also a good unit as well. Pros and cons to both.

With my set up and the ability to not have separate channels on the Psm for crossovers and such is my reasoning for switching. Don’t get me wrong the Psm is an awesome unit but with multiple size speakers and different crossover points it’s ran it’s course in my bike.
