 JBL MS-8 DSP

MS-8 The JBL® MS-8 dramatically improves the sound in any vehicle with an existing audio system. It’s got the power of a digital signal processor (DSP) to optimize audio signals and your car’s listening space, no matter what kind of car it is. Logic 7® matrix processing, a 31-band equalizer, user presets and precision active crossovers are but a fraction of the unit’s features. Onboard power allows direct connection for existing speakers, while pre-amp outputs offer comprehensive system expansion. Whatever your system configuration, no other car audio digital signal processor does what this one can do. It’s a true solution.

The JBL MS-8 handles all the necessary tasks for dramatically improving the sound in any vehicle with an audio system. It’s got the power of a digital signal processor (DSP) engine to optimize the signals and settings for any in-vehicle listening environment, whether new or old. Logic 7 matrix processing elevates the listening experience of any two-channel source material, and onboard power allows direct connection to existing speakers.
