BikeTronics line leveler VS DSP

[@Eric_the_bike_man]

Thank you for this incredibly informative video! I now understand why/how I wiped out a pair of speakers by not having the factory head unit flashed, and will be taking the appropriate steps to make sure it doesn't happen again.

[@Quackhead73]

Great informational video. Ive added an amp and speakers to a 2020 SGS. Im going to add speakers to the lower fairing as well. I ordered the BT355 to get me by until I decide I really want to take it to another level. You just showed me what to realistically expect from a basic upgrade and where to start with a higher end upgrade.... Very much appreciated.

[@angelvip2474]

Damn good video and explanation.

[@lagunaprmc8416]

Great information! I'm thinking of getting the 2x8 PRV DSP.

These are just the right answers that I needed to hear thank you so much for this video

Floyd Kemp 1 second ago Don't mean to change tone but after watching your DSR-1 video I have a question will it work for my system? I have 1 Focal Sport 4 ch amp in my fairing, 1 Focal Sport 4 ch amp in my bag, and 1 Diamond 2 ch amp in my other bag for my subs. Speakers are 2 Hertz 6.5 fairing, 2 Hertz 6.5 lowers, 2 Hertz 6x9's bag lids, 2 JL 8" Subs in bags and 2 Hertz Nano Tweeters in my bag. So will a DSR-1 work for my setup? Your video says all bike audio upgrade should run Some kind of DSP.

[@danielzamora3769]

@@floydkemp3134 I think you confused my comment with NVS Audio you need answers from Carlos from New Jersey I'm Dan from San Antonio no affiliation to Mr Carlos but he does have the knowledge the DSP from my understanding works like your old school crossovers from back in the days your radio plugs into your DSP and you run all your rca's to your amps when you're using your DSP you download your program into your phone and you can set up your system the way you want I don't know what year you have to flash your radio to get a flat EQ curve but that needs to be done too on newer models I don't know how far I am from being right on that I'm still learning seems to me like you have all the pieces to make the puzzle come together hope the best for you sir but respectfully don't listen to anything I say ask Carlos he's the man 💯🇺🇸

I used the Biketronics line leveler with a Biketronics BT4180 which is 180 per channel and Hertz MLK 1650.3’s Line leveler Worked great. Now I have DSP going in. No Hertz MLK 1650.3’s anymore

[@ericmiller7786]

I hope you fixed that cut harness and put back the factory mx150 molex connectors. I add the molex to the dsr1 to make it a pnp unit. Solder and heakshrink is great for a handlebar harness but I like to keep the customers harness pnp to easily put back to factory if they change bikes in the future. Also cutting and splicing wires changes wire resistance when adding solder thats why on a bagger 14 and newer you really can't solder wires it has a can/bus that hates ohm changes in the harness. Great info on the dsp and line leveler though.

[@nohandsdan9353]

So much good information bro! If I'm installing just new front speakers (2 total) and an 800wx4 channel amp but only have the 2 front speakers on my '21 sgs and don't plan on adding more... Would i still need the radio flashed? Thanks! Oh speakers are infinity kappa 6.5 600x and I have the plug and play wire harness too already!

[@NVSAUDIO]

Flashing makes a world of difference, no matter how many speakers

[@MrXo]

Your videos are outstanding

[@iibadii]

Very good explanation. 👍

[@BangaloreAviation]

Thanks for your easy to understand videos, Carlos. What is your recommendations for an entry level DSP to match say for a SD 800.4 Evo X with a simple 2 or 4 speaker entry level system.

[@NVSAUDIO]

Rockford dsr1

[@sylvestersride]

@@NVSAUDIO Is there a way to do this with the rta pro app, with out running thru the speakers?

[@Bottom2TopServices]

@@NVSAUDIO I currently have a PAC is it possible to add a DSR1 DSP using the RCA from the PAC into the DSR1 and then separate the outputs to tune. I'm asking because my amp is currently in the bag.

[@jermainelovitt1729]

Thanks, that explained a lot.

[@osubam]

Great video! Thank you1

[@newazhorizons9945]

Great stuff, thank you. My question, if I get this correctly, I don't need a "line leveler" if I have an aftermarket radio, I can simply use RCA cables from the radio to the amp?

[@DirtyDeeds94]

May be a dumb question…. But I use Spotify for my music and adjusted the EQ on the app and it seemed to help a lot. Is that not a decent cheap solution? At least until I can install a dsp

[@NVSAUDIO]

Yes

[@ShadowSolja]

Do you have an electronics background? Love your videos!

[@danprucnal2410]

Good video. Is there a file with an eq setup to start with a baseline for someone who doesn’t have an RTA?

[@NVSAUDIO]

Dan Prucnal I can send you a base line tune when you are ready

[@dominicksciorilli3250]

GReat Info!!! Thanks

[@luhman80]

If I decided to throw in a stage 3 six speaker Rockford system do I still need to worry about needing a dsp or is the output signal from the Rockford deck clean enough to where I don't have to worry about damaging any speakers??

[@smitt1970]

Hey Carlos, learning alot from many videos, my issue is that HD has changed the plugs on the 2021 touring models, and none of my shops nearby, have the plug yet. conflicting answers, does the new GTS system have to be flashed? its a 2021 Road Glide Limited. I am adding the RF T400x4ad, along with the RF amp install kit, which makes the DSR1 P&P. not going over board on this install, just want to get it done now, and not sit an have to wait till they can flash it.Suggestions? Patience?

[@hunterharlow93]

I just want to upgrade my 2 fairing speakers with ground zero coaxial speakers and add an app will just a reflash be good enough or will i need a dsp

[@romesyoutubechannel5356]

Great video

[@limitlessworx5724]

But I wouldn't need a DSP for a factory upgrade to the 4 speakers I have on bike DSP should be used on 6+ speakers correct ?

[@danterry5882]

If I have a large Alpine amp with built in crossovers for the front and the rear speakers, do I still need a DSP?

[@jfeliciano2687]

Definitely helpful

[@gudynielsen8780]

Can you show in the app what the settings would be like??..Also how do you fix the different sound output when bike off and started???

[@NVSAUDIO]

Disable avc ( active volume control on the radio ) I have a step-by-step video coming up on the dsr1 install and setup

Im wanting to run the rf stage 3 but a friend of mine has the stage 3 rf with the flash and says its loud and clear but no bass out the lid 6×9s .my question is if i run the rf stage 3 with the rf dsr1 will i be able to get more bass out of the 6× 9 in the lids?here where im at in Albuquerque New Mexico shops dont seem to know much about the drs1thans for the info luv your channel

[@NVSAUDIO]

Yes The dsr1 with a proper tune will make your 6x9s produce more mid bass but you have to be realistic with your expectations. It’s just like door speakers in a car , you can only get so much out of them before you need to add a subwoofer/ mid bass driver for real bass .

I’m not a big fan People Only use it because it’s the least expensive But it’s better than nothing. In the under $200 price range i like Ad dsp 46 Dayton dsp Dsr1 Above $200 Hertz h8 Arc audio psm Audison bit ten Ad 6 to 8

[@torion29able]

Hows it going buddy! Love ur videos btw! I have a 2020 roadglide special...and I hooked up a Dayton audio dsp to itband I got n o sound when I plugged the rcas all the way in...when I plugged it halfway it worked...someone said that the Dayton audio doesn't support high level rcas...so my question is this. Is there a fix for this issue so I can use it ..? Or is there another dsp u recommend other than the dsr1

[@NVSAUDIO]

Torion Jones some thing is wired wrong We use the Dayton dsp on Harley-Davidson all the time . The Dayton doesn’t support high level speaker input though the rca but it does have speaker level input on the power plug . Use those and you will Be fine .

[@puterg0d]

This sounds more like you confusing the marketing. I do not view this devices name as a "signal leveler". When I read its name I specifically see it as an LOC, and that is what it is.

[@snerp]

Not sure if you have used these amps ever, I just bought one that seems to come with everything built in...no need for a DSP? aquaticav.com/amplifiers/ad3002micro-2-channel-amplifier/
