AudioControl D-5.1300 5-Channel 1300W RMS DSP Matrix Car Amplifier – High-Power Full-Range & Subwoofer Performance, Built-In DSP, Low-Distortion Premium Audio Upgrade

2nd time running this D-5.1300 for a simple but high sq system. I tried the EpicFive with the LC7 Pro but the DSP on this unit gives you the control necessary to create the perfect all-in-one system. Plus the clean look removing the extra cables for the LOC.

Overall I love this amp. It’s amazing and sounds great however it has one flaw I can’t stand. The flaw is that you can’t disable the crossovers and you can’t set them lower than 25hz. While I understand that it may help protect your speakers and subs from ultra low frequency damage I would still like the option to play 10hz from my sub without the crossover getting in the way. But in normal use with music it’s perfectly fine. The amp has amazingly clean sound. Highly recommended. Also there’s no reason you couldn’t run a second amp for the sub but it does kinda defeats the purpose of this amp. Also the seller is not authorized by audio control so if you have any issues with the amp audio control will not warranty the amp at all. Be aware of this.

The D-5.1300 amplifier is a beast! Audio control makes the most versatile and quality equipment available. I have done professional audio installations for years and have always recommended their equipment. The digital processors and amplifiers require a computer to set up and there may be a learning curve if you're not familiar with the different settings available but it's well worth the investment. The power rating is greatly under rated.

The product I received was defective. I've lost a lot money and it was difficult to tune when it did work for the first few weeks.

Pros: -Everything about this 5ch amp with fully integrated DSP is of great quality and if tuned correctly this system will deliver close to perfect sound quality. -customer service is slow to respond but the support tech is very knowledgeable and actually very helpful 👍 👌 Cons: -lack of instruction and learning curve can be very difficult for novice installers. -the optional RLC and BT adapter will run you another $200 for something that imo should be included with the flagship unit or atleast as a discounted add-on.
