Product Information

FiX-82

OEM Integration DSP with Automatic Time Correction and Digital EQ. 8-ch. Inputs / 2-ch. Stereo RCA Outputs / 1 Digital Optical (Toslink) Output

The FiX™ 82 is a state-of-the-art digital signal processor engineered to deliver world-class sound from factory audio systems, without replacing the OEM source unit. The FiX™ 82 is the first DSP to automatically correct time delayed factory outputs prior to signal summing and EQ correction.

With a powerful 24-bit DSP processor and dual 1/3 octave equalizers onboard, complex 2-way, 3-way and 4-way factory audio outputs are combined and level-matched automatically into a flat, full-range stereo signal. Differential-balanced inputs accept virtually any OEM analog audio signal, from low-voltage, line-level to high-power, amplified speaker-level outputs (up to 30V RMS).

Calibration is initiated with just a single button press and takes only about 30 seconds to complete, with no special equipment needed!

By connecting a PC running TüN™ 2.0 software via USB, you can also access a complete suite of diagnostic panels that show the frequency response of input signals, as well as the corrected outputs. Adjustments can be made to input polarity, muting, and filtering, and new calibrations can be initiated from the PC as well. By clicking on the “TUNE” tab of the TüN™ 2.0 interface, you can also access a pair of user-adjustable, 10-band, graphic equalizers to fine tune the output signals.

Output options include dual RCA jacks (4V RMS) or a digital optical (Toslink) output, supporting PCM audio (S/PDIF) at 24 bit/48 kHz resolution.

Activation methods include 12-volt or automatic (Signal/DC-Offset Sensing), plus a dedicated remote turn-on output for activating your aftermarket equipment.

Connect the optional DRC-100 Digital Remote Controller (sold separately) to add Master Volume Control capabilities from the driver’s seat. Clipped input signals and overall condition are also reported via the DRC-100's multi-color status LED.

Achieving great sound from your factory stereo has never been easier, or sounded better.
