Clarion Mobile Electronics Mcd360 3 Way 6 Channel Electronic Crossover with Subwoofer Control

UPDATE Sep. 2011This item recently died on me. The first sign was feedback in my system. A slight whine. Then it was causing distortion that I could not pinpoint. At high volume one channel was sending artificially high voltage, pooping my speaker. Then it completely burned out. Not sure if I should by another one or what. Great for a while....OriginalThis was a great buy.Had trouble finding a X-over that would take 2 channels, Front and SUB and split it into three FRONT, REAR and Leave the SUB independent without the use of a splitter.This item works wonderfully. THD is very low, Low pass cross over works very well. Will cut out bass below my speaker response, (50hz). Base boost is also a plus, especially one that the frequency can be adjusted. Allowing for compensation at the low end of the spectrum where subs start to loose response.Also, the remote level for the bass, a must have. I installed the potentiometer in my dash, now i can raise or lower bass volume at a touch, never having to use the head unit level. Very nice if you listen to different music types. Allows the sub to blend purrrrrfectly with my components.Wonderful buy, wonderful price, would highly recommend.

I purchased this MCD360 to adjust the signals going to a five channel Memphis amp, and it does a great job. There's no unwanted noises just a clean filtered signal going to the amp. The adjustments on the crossover are much better than what's on the amp so for mids and highs I set the amp on full without a filter and use the MCD360. For the sub channel I use the crossover for the low pass filter however the MCD360 does not have a sub sonic filter so I use the amps built in crossover to keep out the very low frequencies. This crossover works great and I would definitely recommend it unless you really need a sub sonic filter.

I bought the exact same brand and model in 2009. That crossover worked flawlessly from 2009 until about two weeks ago. So basically, the thing lasted about 13 years. During that time, I ran 2 amplifiers, two 15 inch subwoofers, and four 6 inch speakers from it. I had a 1000 watt amp pushing my speakers, and a 2600 watt amp pushing my subwoofers. I played my music very loudly for hours at least 5 times a week, and the crossover still lasted all those years. Naturally, when the crossover finally failed, I wanted the exact same model if possible. Imagine my joy when I found the same model on Amazon! I've installed the new replacement and it sounds great! I'm looking forward to another 13 years of driving my neighbors crazy when I come home blasting my music in the middle of the night. Lol. Definitely worth the money and built to last.

Can never go wrong with this crossover

The casing is solid, the features are abundant, and the quality is superb. The remote also moves through the full range of your preset volume, so you can turn it all the way off if you need (and the cord from the remote is extra long). My configuration: L/R RCA from the head unit to the crossover (there's an option to split one input into front, rear, and sub!), crossover to 2 channel 800w sub amp, crossover to 4 channel 400w speaker amp. All rigged with a 1.7uF cap.This crossover does exactly what it's supposed to do. I see only one improvement:The frequencies aren't explicitly defined on the dials, though they do provide three reference points - presumably lowest, middle, and highest. Not a big deal; just requires a little more effort, moving from trunk to cabin and back, to match frequencies.Overall, a quality product. I did lots of research, all of which led me to this thing. No regrets whatsoever. My sound system is now clearer than any I've heard, and, at max volume, there's absolutely no distortion. The instructions were also surprisingly concise and well-written.Thank you, Clarion!

This device made my subs insane but in 4 channel mode, only my front right speaker was working. In 2 channel mode, all four speakers worked but had very little power and very high distortion. This item was defective and I have started a return process. I was very surprised due to how many good reviews it has.I recieved my replacement. My pioneer has 4 channel, 2v outputs. Similar to before, I have issues in 4 channel mode. With it enabled, the front right and back left speakers do not work. In 2 ch mode, everything works and sounds good. I can not detect a difference in volume. The highs do seem cleaner. The subs...dang...I had to turn the bass control down to 1/2. This decice definitely makes the bass stronger and cleaner. The highs are definitely more crisp and the volume now has a more gradual increase. I have less low end midrange now but everything sounds cleaner.

This is just what the Dr. ordered. I was recommended to get this instead of an equalizer and glad I did. This crossover handles anything that you throw at it. My system is so crystal clear til it's not even funny. It's like Red Bull to your system. It ease to hook up all amps and speakers are unmatched. For the price, please buy this. Don't get anything else but this crossover if you're serious about clarity and sound.

Works well with my car audio.

Work’s amazing…makes your car sound so much better..worth every penny

Excelente producto, de muy buena calidad y funciona muy bien. Dio otro nivel a la calidad de mi sonido de auto.llego antes de lo programado.

Very clean at full output. No clips on my oscilloscope.But it is not a line output driver. Dont buy it if you will also need a Line driver between the stereo and the crossover. The 5 volt output claimed by clarion is dependent on input voltage. If you have atleast 2.8 volts line level, then the 5V is possible.

Great product

Love this clarion crossover . it worked well with my clarion equalizer .. 10/10 absolutely love it
