Question: the epicenter uses pfm chips which are essentially subsonic filter chips. So does that mean i can set my mono amps ssf all the way to the left/lowest setting as the epicenter is already using a pfm/ssf chip

Nice video. I read where the Epicenter can make songs that have bass sound muddy or distorted even with the knob turned all the way down. Is this true? Anyway to get around this problem?

🔴 my question is, since my epicenter rolls off frequencies below 27hz does this mean if i want to play notes below that i have to disconnect my epicenter? if am playing bass boosted songs at 25hz and i have the epicenter bass knob all the way down will the epicenter still roll off frequencies below 27hz

Would this be useful even if I have a dm608 that has accubass? Because even with it. Old school songs still have very low bass

If you cannot turn your LPF to at least 250hz, then you should use one of your full range (generally front or rear) outputs instead. Ideally, the Epicenter should have input signal with frequencies up to 1khz for it to work it's best.

All Epicenter bass processors include something we call a PFM, which is essentially like a subsonic filter. This will help to make sure that your subwoofer doesn't play much below it's optimal frequency response, or "unload" by playing below it's tuning frequency in a ported/vented enclosure. This filter's frequency can be changed by swapping the PFM to the desired frequency model.

The Epicenter is all about preference. For some users, there will be songs that don't need the Epicenter effect. For those songs, you may want to turn the Epicenter all the way down. If that still doesn't do the trick, you may want to consider changing the internal PFM filter to a lower setting. For more info, check out the PFM's here: www.audiocontrol.com/product/Crossover-PFM-Modules/ Also, are you feeding a full range signal into your Epicenter? Or are you crossing over the signal fed into your Epicenter inside your head unit? If so, the Epicenter will not sound right, so please make sure you are feeding a full range signal (or as close to full range as your head unit will allow) to the Epicenter's inputs.

Can you do a video on the dash mount version

Hi, it would seem that you are one of the few experts on AudioControl's DSP products, and so I was hoping you might be able to help me with a few pre-sale questions? With that said, I'm trying to decide between an Alpine DSP and AudioControls 810 DSP, but I'm not sure about some of the technologies used in the AudioControl to make an informed decision. The first question I have is whether or not the 810 uses parametric EQ? I know the technical sheet says parametric filters, but I'm not sure if this applies to the EQ portion of the processor, or if this means they are using parametric control at some other level of sound processing. The second question I have is with the bluetooth module, as in; does this mean the DSP can input streaming audio from an independent source such as an android phone, as well as controlling the DSP? The third question may be a bit of a twist, but I'm wondering if anyone has controlled the 810 from a headunit, as there are android head-units out there, which could effectively double-down as an advanced audio controller? And finally, do you know what the latency measurements are for the delay control on this particular unit? I believe the Alpine uses 0.05ms intervals and so I was wondering how the AudioControl unit measured-up on this as well. PS. thanks for all of your hard work and video's - your video's have proved to be an incredible source of information for car audio enthusiasts such as myself

You can reach us here: www.audiocontrol.com/contact/ 1. The DM-810 uses a graphic EQ for the user interface. 2. The AC-BT24 optional BT module does both BT streaming AND control/setup of the DM-810 (or any option-port enabled AC product, for that matter) 3. If the Android head unit can run standard apps like a tablet would, I don't see any reason why it wouldn't work the way you are describing. We have seen many installations where there is an iPad or android tablet flush mounted into the dash, running our DM-SmartDSP software for on-the-fly adjustments/tuning. As an added feature, we also recently released a FREE app for consumers that own any of our DSP products. It's called DM-CTRL, and it allows the user to wirelessly switch between DSP presets, as well as control master volume or subwoofer level, depending on how the DSP is configured. 4. The DSP software allows the user to control the time delay in your choice of measurements. So you can choose between inches, centimeters, or milliseconds as your unit of measurement. If using milliseconds, it is in 0.5ms intervals.

Again as an example, narrow around 45hz would make it effective from 35-55. Wider would make the effective range larger. That's my understanding

yes.

What happen when the epicenter switch goes bad?

Soo, mine is showing power but the logo isn’t turning on.Only car speakers are working anyone might know the reason ??

So these really do work?they make the bass more clear?

Mine sounded like sh8t. muffled, gargled, no balls on the bass. Audiocontrol says its supposed to be connected to a full range source ie on the 4 channel output side, ok, but then where the fuk is one then supposed to connect the rear/front channel if that spot is already taken? Maybe we are supposed to using a fukn 6 channel capable headunit which is BS

I connected my blaupunkt epicenter and now my eqauilzers sun knob doesn’t work

Is this good for metal? Making the drums and low guitar notes hit?

I have question about the Epicenter, that is great it's adds bass to a song that doesn't have bass, but I would not want it to add more bass to a song that already has plenty. Does it is smart enough to do this?

This is where the dash mounted control knob comes into play. The ACR-1 control knob (included with the Epicenter) adjusts the Epicenter Effect. So on a song that already has tons of bass (some hip hop or EDM tracks, maybe), you could simply turn the Epicenter all the way down, and forget it is even there. When needed though, ramp up the knob just a few ticks, and you'll instantly hear the difference it makes. Hope that helps!

@@AudioControlCar Ok thanks, but that does not answer the question. I want to know how the Epicenter manage song with lot of bass. I prefer not to play with a knob all the time, and would like the device to be able to add bass to weak song and keep intact songs that are already bassy...

@@Domaudeo I understand what you are wanting it to do, but that is not how the Epicenter works. Sorry, but you would need to adjust the knob on a per-song basis. I am unaware of any mobile audio product out there that does exactly what you're looking for. Maybe in the future! It's a great idea- thank you for the suggestion.

@@Domaudeo i suggest u use the in dash epicenter and for songs that have a lot of bass already, u can use the off button and it will play as if no epicenter is installed. Then push the on button for songs that need bass. Only the indash epicenter has this feature unfortunately. I wish all of them did have an on/off button so we can bypass the epi completely when needed as turning the epi knob all the way down doesnt turn it off and those bass heavy tracks will still sound messed up

@@akuma4u That's useless, I don't want to play with knobs and buttons at each song... My Epicenter is now sold as it does not do what I wanted. I think some kind of dynamic processor should exist for the car, just to make the whole listening experience easier.

So would install the epicenter after my crossover

No, you install the epicenter between the deck and the crossover. The epicenter requires a full range signal input, so it can create bass notes. You can't send a crossed over frequency into it or it will do almost nothing to the signal. Like this: Deck>Epicenter>Crossover>Amp

I know this is an older video, but Audio Control is more popular in 2023 than ever, I use the in dash epicenter, and I LOVE it. But, im afraid I'm leaving much of its capabilities on the table so to speak, and I need to ask someone knowledgeable a quick question, to settle my uncertainty. It may be a ridiculous question, but im going to attempt to ask.. Ok. So, when i put my amplifier in the car, i used the generic method of using an oscilloscope, all head unit gains flat, bass knob at full tilt ( not even sure if this is correct method with epicenter incorporated in the system) but how do i set the in dash epicenter during this process? I am aware the epicenter control isnt a "volume knob", it determines how much of the "miracle of boom" is introduced into the audio being listened to (my dumbes down way of thinking) Ive looked for this to be explained to no avail, thought it was worth a shot to ask here. Thank you
