Link Rainbow dsp

Saw these on sale from $800 to $400. I know from back then “Rainbow” was a top notch brand. Not much information and websites are not in English at times. Reason why I’m interested is because of the capability of tuning with an app. It says it has built in 7x55 watt too.
I did see a thread about the rainbow dsp 1.8 but this looks like a updated model.

It's Definitely priced low enough, might just be worth a try. Rainbow does or did put out some really high end speakers.

You can save an additional $80 at the link below. It’s the same seller. Hard to see how you can go wrong at $320.

Agreed, 💯

 

Yea I saw that

 

I bought it, so I guess I’ll be the guinea pig tester. The app is smooth and decent. I was just messing with it. I never had a dsp in the car before. How do you guys set the sweeps and mic? Is that only via REW?

 

There is a 12 channel version for $640 on ebay

I won’t be running rears. Good deal forsure

 

So here is the deal with Rainbow they are no longer the company they once were as they were sold to a Chinese company. The real rainbow brand is AudioCircle they started a new company after the sale. Your guess is as good as anyone's to the quality of these for $320 bucks but I'm sure it's plenty capable.

 

I think @Zippy used to have one of these, I can't say for sure though, but tagged him in case he sees this and can provide some input.

 

I have used one before. I stopped using it cause Apple would patch and their software wouldn't and nothing worked together after a point. Another gotcha is that they didn't have linkwitz-riley crossovers in the DSP. I had to use butterworth. It did the job though. The apple integration was my stop for using it.

 

Seems to be the biggest problem with dsp’s - if they don’t have the sales and manpower to update firmware indefinitely in the future, it’s almost a given it will have frustrating bugs.

 

Definitely a Chinese company, I did research and typos everywhere and broken links. Found it on AliExpress. The capital of Chinese stuff. I cancelled my order .

 

If you want a cheaper dsp amp with software that actually works and is functional here you go.

Or Musway ^.

Played with the software and listened to both the kia and panamera. solid stuff.

 

Or Musway ^.

I went to the musway site...where do you buy from? I didn't see links or anything online for the 6to8

 

The thing nice about the Steg that in my opinion is the downside of amp dsp combos is you are usually limited by the gains in dsp run out of output and thsts it. Where the Steg is like having a standalone where you run out of gain at 0db in processor you can bump your gains on amps and overcome limitation well Steg I believe has gain controls on amp side aswell in dsp that's nice. I will say I played with Musway software two days ago and it's straight to the point I find it's sister company ESX to have the better software though.

 

testing waters in a deep sea is always fun and enjoyable for me

 

You enjoy more changing things than actual music, it seems to me. Whatever makes you happy 😃

 

I'm sure the m12 and tune12 are great dsps but at those prices you are into the higher end stuff, but the old forum saying...buy once cry once certainly still stands. I figured he was looking for something more budget friendly thars why I suggested what I did.

 

Back to your original question, anyone ever use these Rainbow DAP amps? If they sold the R&D to this Chinese company, might still be good. I was watching that 12 channel DSP amp. Looking for a "simple" amp upgrade to a stock Bose 15 channel system.

 

12 channel dsp/amp is down to $500. Didn’t see anyone give an answer. But $500 seems like a deal.

On a whim I bought the 6 channel with amp(Rainbow Audio EL-AP300D 6 channel DSP/Amplifier) for my brother-in-law's Bronco. Not an SQ vehicle by any means so as long as it works as intended it should be good. I'll post with results when we eventually get it installed.

That rainbow iron DSP amp is pretty attractive at $500....

 

You need to load anything on closeout into your cart to see the price.

That Rainbow Iron DSP amp is only $375 while they last.

Now that's what I call attractive!

 

I’m sad too lol

 

No worries,

He's so swamped with the move that he forgot!

Sale pricing should be back up tomorrow!

Enjoy!

Thanks! Purchased

 

I was playing with the app and evaluating for potential purchase and don't see any phase adjustments. Only thing I could find was eq, xovers and gains. Am I missing something?
