Without question, that Mc is great. I just know you can get much much much much much better results with a processor. Much much better. Did I mention that is would be better by much? :P If yoiu have your doubts, if anything, those PDX's are holding your Mc back.

I have no experience at all with this unit. Bit1 seems like a viable option, and unless you are planing to compete and afraid to lose points in one area Bit1 has a problem with, but I cant recall what that is right now, then Bit1 should be a very viable option, as for everyday use it is top notch. You just have to hear your system properly tuned with T.A. I dont think you would ever have to change the Mc based on its performance, I just dont think those PDX's are the best match for it. If you want we can meet one day and try DLS A3 on the front end just for fun to see what happens.

i've actually gone from a 9965 to this headunit, and honestly, i don't miss the time alignment much at all in the system. the only thing i miss is the crossover flexibility.

i've chosen the pdx's because of their efficiency and size. i would love to hear what something else could do with my mlk's one day though. i've heard those dls amps are pretty nice.

I see. Good to hear. I would miss T.A. for sure, cause I love it. I know, PDX's are tiny little things. Hearing DLS is a must. They sound great.

oh *barf* now we're getting into the myth that amps drastically affect the sound of a system. lol.

Also, if processing makes a HUGE difference to your system then, frankly, you effed up the install..

BUT both of these are topics unrelated to this thread.
