Hi folks

Does anybody know where I can get hold of one of the MTX re-Q processors or Audiocontrol LC6i preferrably to buy online as I don't have a lot of time to chase around for this stuff. It'll be going in a VE commo.

Thanks

About the re-Q, there are some on ebay, but they are international for now... local... I'm not too sure. I'll find out and get back to you shortly

My bad... Here you go

Thanks for looking Tiger. I should have mentioned that I already tried ordering from them with no luck. Said they weren't in stock and just gave a refund. Guess I keep looking then

Doh!


OK, back in 5...

Why not just send a PM to Hakki (crankin) or Marty (FHRX) i'm sure they could organise one for you in a day or two.

Yeah a Bit one would be nice and I'm sure it's better too but it'd want to be at 10 times the price. More than I want to spend anyway

Don't JB HiFi do MTX?

Crutchfield are supposed to stock it (according to their website)

Try here

I saw the MTX at WOW, it's a nice looking bit of kit for the money, I'm going to try one next time I need an LOC.

Also consider the Cache Coe6 if you get the chance. Best one I've used to date, although I haven't used the MTX.

This looks pretty good for an all in one style solution. LOC, LPF/HPF/Subsonic filters, Line driver, Parametric bass EQ and remote bass controller. Not bad for $89 USD.

The only Cache one I have seen in action retailed for the same money as the Audiocontrol LC6 but only had 1.5v RMS output as measured with a scope.

If you were choosing between the two the Audiocontrol has a higher voltage output and I would suggest that.

Bear in mind though that neither have any singal processing built in to account for variations from a flat frequency response that are common with OEM decks.

superaudio installations in the ACT has an LC6 in their display cabinet

JB Hifi stock both The ReQ and LC6i. LC6i are $319 and The ReQ is $199 from memory, however the ReQ has no printing or anything to indicate that it's a MTX product. They're labelled as from a brand called Mitek. I assure you I haven't gotten products mixed up, it's definitely the same unit. The ReQ has hp/lp filters, adjustable level matching, sub control. The LC6i has only level matching and channel summing. IMHO, it's worth losing out on the lp/hp filters and sub control to get a unit that feels of much better build quality. LC6i are made by AudioControl in the USA, ReQ in China. The LC6i's manual is written like a mate, and cracks jokes etc about the product. All LC6i units are signed off by the person who assembles and the person who tests it.

I went for the LC6i.

To offer an unbiased opinion, I've never used an ReQ so they may quite possibly be a great unit. I was just more interested in a unit that does one thing, and does it well.

My 2c.

Mitek is the parent company for MTX and Street Wires IIRC

That's right Adam, along with Coustic and Xtant

I knew I forgot a few

The old Xtant woofers that were a hex type shape were actually a rebadged MTX Thunder woofer... I pity all the people that paid throught the ass for the Xtant version

for what i have heard the re-q5 ins't that good, but i haven't used 1 myself,
for the extra money go with the LC6i, proven it's self many times for the price.

+1 for the audio control LC6i, the Audiocontrol stuff is virtually bullet proof. Dont forget the sub control is extra if you are using for running a sub. I had the EQTs years ago and they were awesome. I have also used the LC6i in a BA Falcon to just add subs it worked well, no interference or noise it sounded very nice.
