    Syncher,

    Still liking the unit? I'm getting close to installing my amps and DSP.

    I do still like it but am experiencing some strange behavior that might be operator error or something not working properly with the bluetooth in the dsp or Fiio9. I got it to work a couple of times previously but last time I worked on the car it wouldn't connect. Next time I troubleshoot I'll test the coax out too. Better quality that way anyhow.
    I also haven't seen where to mute all but one speaker, which is nice to be able to do when tuning. There's a cumbersome workaround (lower the output of every other channel one at a time) but they really need to add that. I haven't had tons of time to tune so I'm a long ways from finished.

    Did you get the BT issue figured out?

    Its so they didn't have to create a separate terminal for the power and ground. They provide 3x 18 gauge wires to accommodate a larger gauge power wire either from your battery or your distribution block. I plan on running an 8 gauge power wire to the unit. Yes, I'll have to solder all 3 wires together than to the 8 gauge with a good quality connector. Same thing for the ground.

    Played around a bit with phone and Fiio bluetooth playback. Good news is bt works fine- both devices will connect quickly. Only one bt device can be connected to the dsp at a time so no real time tuning with Fiio via bt. For some reason my wired remote does not work

    Syncher,

    Is there a setting that needs to be turned on in options or set-up for the wired controller to work??

    I'd contact Alpine USA support for assistance.

    That's great news that the BT is working well!

    Chris
