【UP-6DSP｜6ch DSP amplifier that makes use of OEM audio】

You’d like to fine-tune the sound of your OEM audio a bit more. But you want to avoid making major replacements to your navigation or display audio.

If that’s you, consider the UP-6DSP, a DSP amplifier that integrates a 6ch amplifier and a 7ch DSP. While utilizing the signals output from your OEM audio, you can adjust the sound balance in detail to match your vehicle’s speaker configuration and your listening position.

Build the sonic foundation while keeping your OEM audio

The UP-6DSP supports adjustments such as time alignment, equalization, and crossover.

In a car, the distance to the speakers and the mounting positions differ between left and right, so simply placing components won’t create a natural soundstage like home audio. By using DSP to align the system to your in-car environment, you can dial in a more listenable sound while confirming the vocal position and how each speaker connects.

Even in vehicles with OEM multi-output, using MEC ANALOG IN enables up to 8ch high-level input. Mixing and level adjustment are also possible for up to 4 channels. Because the connection method varies depending on the vehicle model and OEM system, it’s important to review the actual specifications before planning your configuration.

Plenty of expandability in a compact body

The unit includes not only a 6ch amplifier, but also a 1ch pre-out. In addition to driving the front and rear speakers, depending on your system setup, you can also consider more advanced sound design by combining a subwoofer.

Maximum output is 65W×4ch (4Ω) + 160W×2ch (2Ω). With its high-efficiency Class GD operating design, the size is compact at 130×46×130mm and weight is 1.0kg.

It’s a size that can be fitted more easily even in small cars or vehicles where you don’t want to alter the appearance. However, the actual installation location and wiring methods will vary by vehicle. Don’t force it to fit—install it with consideration for serviceability and wiring processing, which helps ensure peace of mind later on.

The UP-6DSP is an amplifier that delivers its best when you “tune it”

The UP-6DSP is not a product that automatically completes the sound inside the car just by installing it. You can bring out its true strengths by adjusting it to match the OEM audio signal, speaker configuration, your listening position in the vehicle, and the music you typically listen to.

At Logon, we don’t just install the product—we also discuss together how far you should go with modifications, while checking the vehicle specifications and your preferences. Are you going to replace the speakers and add a subwoofer at the same time, or start with a DSP amplifier while leveraging the OEM speakers first? Depending on your budget and how you use it, the best combination will change.

If you want to fine-tune sound while preserving the usability of your OEM audio, or if you want to bring the in-car soundstage closer to your taste, this should be a rather interesting option. If we know your vehicle model and your current audio setup, we can organize the system plan together from a reasonable approach.
