HKI Mini Digital Sound Processor
8-Channel Digital Sound Processor (DSP)
Description
In the ’80s and ‘90s we had stand-alone equalizers, crossovers and even phase-shifting devices — all designed to help make your car audio system sound better. A DSP can be used to smooth out differences in acoustics so your music will sound like you are hearing it in person instead of through a speaker. Listening to a speaker in a showroom is a very different experience from hearing that same speaker in a car. All cars, trucks, SUVs, motorcycles, boats and even ATVs have reflections and resonances that change the sound we hear from the speakers due to the acoustics of the environment.
A Digital Signal Processor allows you to manipulate signals from various inputs and allows your speakers to play in a way that they were designed to by cutting out distortion and increasing overall volume.
The size of a mobile phone, this 4 channel input / 8 channel out processor is designed for smartphone programming, low level integration with enough EQ and adjustment capability to tune a majority of builds out there. HKI designed this processor knowing that it would find a home in multiple styles of builds (such as motorbikes and off-road vehicles) so they also had the board conformal coated to help protect it in less than ideal environments.
