Hey all, Im looking into getting a 1/3 octave eq for my next syetm. All my old systems have only used in dash, 13 band eq's. I need to step up to a 1/3 octave, and I need some advice.
Here's the kicker, I want to keep my in dash eq also. Shouldn't be a big deal, I set the in dash to all centered to set the 1/3 octave, then I can still 'play' with the in dash on a song by song basis. This sin't what confuses me however, but the number of input/output channels on the 1/3 octaves. I want to keep the use of my subwoofer controls from the in dash eq, so that means a set of stereo channels and a mono sub channel (2 rca cables) out of the in dash eq. So, will a 1/3 octave accept 2 inputs, and output them accordingly (ie the sub input is routed to a seperate output to keep it straight)...?
Am I making sense here? Advice anyone?
Also, Ive been looking at the Audio Control units, as they seem to have the most varied line, and I know they are a good name. I see the eqt's are a single channel (run 2 for stereo), if I had a pair of these would I be able to run the setup I described above (seperate sub and full range signal output from dash mounted eq back)..?
Thanks for the input.
