Also, the MS-8's method of post-set up EQ'ing is a hell of a lot more sophisticated than the 'nuts and bolts' DSPs and means that you're more likely to improve the sound by tweaking rather than constantly messing it up.
Of course, if you're a professional audio engineer with 20 years experience and very expensive test equipment, it's possible you can do a better job than the MS-8. Also, somebody that lives and breathes car audio and spends several hours per day tuning systems could possibly beat the MS-8....maybe.

Problem with the MS8 is T/A issues in cars with active 3 way fronts, for some reason it doesn't always process it correctly and you have to run it over and over just to get it close. While, the logic 7 portion for center control and using rears to widen the sound stage is cool, its just a pain with some cars.
I usually recommend it to someone with a factory center who is swapping radios, have them run that over the oem amp and it cleans stuff up nicely.
