    I got a special surprise in the mail from my friends at Audiocontrol! How epic is this? WOW! As you might know if you are a true basshead, the Epicenter is world famous and has been around a LONG LONG TIME. They just sold their 1,000,000th unit and to celebrate they made 5000 individually numbered limited edition Epicenters! I got one in the mail which was an awesome surprise but to have such a low number is an honor! Did you get one? if so put your number in the comments! Thanks for watching if you did!
    What's it do? from the website:
    "Your MP3 player thinks your car stereo is a pair of headphones, so it removes the bass! The Epicenter restores the earth-shaking power and heart-pounding bass your subwoofers crave.
    Give your subwoofers the juice to go lower and hit harder. The Epicenter uses a bass circuit to drive your subwoofers lower, grabbing the attention of every eye on the boulevard."
    features
    Patented Bass Maximizer™
    Dash mount control
    Bass restoration lighted display
    Parametric bass control
    PFM Subsonic Filter
    Balanced inputs
    Bass Output Control

    It is a digital signal restoration device. When music is broadcast for radio, or is put into an mp3 file it gets compressed. This looks for digital artifacts in the bass end of the frequency and digitally re-creates them.

    Will definitely need to set the subsonic filter. This unit will feed your subs the bass it needs especially if you made or have a tuned box tuned lowwww. I have a 32hz ported enclosure w/ X-12 v.3. The bass in the Old school rap never sounded soo good!! If you listen to old school you’re missing out. I was skeptical as well and finally pulled the trigger, soo glad I did. No more rebased songs from CZcams. This sounds waaay better and cleaner!!

    I use a Stetson processor in my system whose parametric EQ has the same adjustments as the bass processors. You can select the frequency in small, visual increments, adjust it's bandwidth and boost and adjust the volume of that channel in the level settings... what's so different besides a bass knob? I'm considering buying one, but I'm not seeing the benefit if that's all it does and I already have those capabilities that seem to be more functional

    • @torrez8144
      @torrez8144 Před rokem

      tbh having a dsp like what you have is all you need cause you can adjust pretty much all frequencies and crossovers to how you like it and the quality sounds even better with one but idk if it does the same thing like an epicenter. cause the epicenter doesn’t boost anything it pretty much just restores bass that’s not there in some songs or that gets lost in the file after it’s done being produced in the studio. i never had a dsp but that’s what an epicenter does lots of people think it boosts bass when it doesn’t it restores and they end up messing up they’re subs cause they don’t know how to set it up correctly
