Hey folks. Been a while. Fixin to start over in my Civic. The Xtant sub amp I was using gave up the ghost and they claim they cannot/will not repair, even if I am willing to pay (which I most certainly was)So now I have 2 old school 3300's and a new school (Chinese) 600x1 that are simply beautiful paper weights. ANYWAYS. I have acquired a Diamond Audio HX 1200.5 As well as the Xtant sub amp pooping out, the Kenwood deck I have ALSO took a dump. Front stage consists of Hybrid Audio Legatia 7 3 and tweet. Sub is an Image Dynamics IDMAX 10d4. To the subject topic....I need suggestions on a new head. Wish to stream from my phone, and feed the amp a good strong signal. I'm a big fan of on board EQ as well. Hands free is not a requirement, I don't talk and drive at the same time!

I have not turned a screw, or soldered a single wire in over 6 years. My time is to valuable. I will be talking with the folks at Audio Northwest for install services. "A" pillar at the dash for the 3 and factory dash location for the tweet. The doors are solid. Also a new enclosure for that awesome 10.

It used to be here that you would ask a simple question and get tons of answers.... NO ONE has an opinion?

I did not see a question. It looked like you were telling us what you were planning to do. I like others probably did not think you were looking for help.

Look into an Alpine CDE-163BT or 164BT if single din.
CDE-W265BT if double din. 9 band true parametric EQ Time alignment. 6 RCA outputs
