E39: DSP Delete w/ Infinty Kappa Five Installed

[bmwmandan2002]

Sorry for the crappy cell pic. I'll do better tomorrow.

Using OE Braket with old skool Infinity Kappa 50.1cs fronts, Kappa 50.1i rears and the OEM DSP sub box wired in parallel for an 8-ohm load so as to not blow those tiny woofers until something real arrives.

The amp is taking the balanced signal right off the HU and sounds fantastic with 0 ground noise. Feel free to ask any questions.

are you using any sound proccesor or are u using it straight from the headunit?
are you using the stock headunit?

[bmwmandan2002]

No signal processing or clean sweeps. OE CD Headunit. The OE headunit puts out something like 4.5-6.5 volts, balanced signal, full range.

[BoltCD]

so your amp doesnt need a loc
it has line imputs?

[bmwmandan2002]

Nope, Plug n' Play. I added RCA ends to the factory wiring.

interesting will this work with a non dsp car? if so id love to see more pictures of the work.

[bmwmandan2002]

Yep, Same HU's

NICE , did you use a Metra harness to get 4CH out of it , the DSP amp Just runs 2ch from what i've heard. this is on my list of things to do next.

My car doesnt have Nav, so the radio is in the headunit, rather then the trunk. To add rear channels it would have to be added into the harness at the front of the car and the wires run to the back. So no fader control, but i have the gain turned down a bit in the rear so you still kind of some semblance of front/rear control.
