Pioneer's unboxing and review of the DEQ S1000A

[@ItzSnelling]

Is there any difference between the deq-s1000a and s1000a2

[@Sound.wave_]

So glad I did NOT get this and saved up for a Helix Match M5DSP mk2. Great video mind.

[@Raymoundish]

do you get two subwoofer out puts with this? I want to run a 3 way system with this so I will need two low range outputs

[@pop032292]

Ill save myself money and keep my old 80prs. Will look into it once i plan to upgrade the wifes car keeping the stock headunit.

[@kdeep1690]

@@RealAmericanHero420 how is this VS the old 9200 sort 1din dsp's . Those with small 1 din HU like display and buttons and arrow keys. This looks easy being software app controlled. Like fixing eq with finger slides on tab. Kindly give Honest and detailed comparison. Does those old school dsp have these much function, sound control and options ?

[@wadehensley5005]

Looks like its made for new vehicles that do not have premium factory amplified systems. allows for aftermarket sound without spending 700 bucks on a dash kit/interface harness

Interested to see a stock head unit rta, then install this unit and run the rta again to see how much it corrects bass roll off. This is a lot cheaper than a JL Fix if it works just as good.

[@20smgreen]

Why the parking wire? Do you don't make Adjustments while driving?

[@justingardner4555]

So..... Its the dsp and amplifier section from an 80 PRS with speaker level inputs? It needs to be cheap.

What happens if you're not using component speakers? I have 2 sets of coaxials in my front and rear doors...

[@dgam8261]

Does this unit produce frequencies that a factory head unit may have diminished or eliminated? Like below 40 hz

[@HearsingAround]

if they receive it they reproduce it. but they can't produce what they don't receive. basicly the same as a PA dsp system. they're basicly a crossover and equalizer in one.

[@abhay0508]

Nicely explained video great work 👍

[@antmedinamedina503]

Hello, good review, pretty complex. Can you please what is the role of that green wire, handbrake wire, because in the instructions says that if not connected, the dsp control functions will be limited.... And another question, by using android, do I have access to all features like Apple have? Thank you in advance

[@dnrink44]

The green is the parking brake.. Use a 2 or 3 pole switch... I use 3..and the grenn goes to acc... So add 12v power to power...green to acc and black ground. U have to pulse it.. So turn it on off on off... And bam... 4 pulses and the unit works great.... And yes Driod has full features... I am a Driod user... Son is apple... Did both... No loss

[@tudorpescar]

@@dnrink44 thanks. I'm telling you what I did to mine. I've connect the green wire to the ground (negative), like this the procesor is functional with the app all the time. Overall I don't like it. Because have just two channel input (front L+R or rear R+L), this means you have to choose which channel to give up and lose the information sent by that channel. You lose some factory warning chimes and parking sensors chimes. On my bmw e60 each parking sensor comunicate individual with related speaker ex: front /left pdc with F/L spk., front center pdc with both front L & R spk., on rear the same. No auxiliary input, no Bluetooth. My factory unit isn't sending a full range signal, because is designed to protect the speakers from low frequency, and this processor isn't restoring the restricted frequency. I had to buy a bass restoration processor, because all frequency under 50hz was reduced, all under 40hz was cut off completely.... So yeah, not so good for modern or complex factory headunits.

Ok question, I have an avic8500 would adding this DSP make an exceptional difference in sound?

They needed to do this a long time ago……. Dam smartphones…. LoL… Can to use rca only? Does this replace the LC7i

[@DavidScott51]

This dsp has 2 channel rca in as well as a 2 channel hi-level input (the orange and brown wires in the harness) lc7i has more inputs and can sum high-mid-low frequencies, but no sound processing other than their accubass technology. If you need more than 2 channels of input, you could use an lc7i to sum your signals and then feed a full-range signal to this dsp via RCA so that you can fine tune your system EQ, and also benefit from all the other features of the app

Great overview and demo. I’m interested in a dsp that does what the Dayton 4 x 8 does, but offers more bands to play with for each channels independent parametric eq. Not everyone needs summing capabilities. And in order to get those added bands to play with , you have to purchase a dsp that has summing, which is three times the price. I know at that 300$ or under price point to have those features is unrealistic at this point in car audio, but I think it’ll get there some day. Anyways, you guys are awesome. Thanks for continuing to bring top notch content.
