Increase bass response from your vehicle’s audio system with The Epicenter Micro Digital Bass Restoration Processor and Line Output Converter by AudioControl. The Epicenter Micro contains patented bass maximization circuity that analyzes the incoming audio signal from your source unit, recreates missing bass tones, and transmits this low-frequency information back into the signal path to increase bass response. This digital bass restoration processor also functions as a two-channel line output converter with a built-in line driver for seamless integration with your factory system.
Compatible with most vehicles’ audio systems
Provides bass enhancement for both factory and aftermarket systems.
Bass maximizer circuitry with LED indicator
Allows the Epicenter to drop down a few octaves to reproduce the “missing” bass notes and indicates when the bass maximizer circuitry is activated.
Compact design
Easily fits in limited space applications.
2-channel line output converter
Features one set of active speaker-level inputs, one set of RCA line-level preamp inputs, and one set of RCA line-level preamp outputs for integration with your existing audio system.

Nice sound processor for that added bass dimension
works great, I put it in a tool box boom box, which has a Kenwood car radio/cd player, Audio Dynamics amp, Boston Acoustics component speakers, 5.25" and 1" tweeter, 600 watt power supply, fully soundproofed for vibration. It adds a nice bass you can feel to the music. As long as you control the bass level, the boom box sounds great. I bought this to put in my next vehicle later, love the flexibility, plenty of adjustability. I have an original version of the Epicenter in my 2015 Toyota RAV4, along with an Alpine head unit, Audio Control 3.2 pre amp, Zuki Audio 5 channel amp, Audio Dynamic 6.5" component speakers in the doors, 10" sub in a ported box built to sub specs. It is a sound quality build, This processor adds a nice bass quality, improved signal quality that most aftermarket head units, especially factory radios just can't muster. Absolutely dead quiet, no vehicle whine, well worth the money.

Its audiocontrol! So it works and works well
Love this thing! Had an xcla2 by nvx and it got the bass back from my stock system and made things sound good. But the epicenter micro made it sound insane. I have 2 12” subs running on 1200rms and after a lot of tuning trial and error. My system sounds like an entirley new setup. Its not lieing when it says to be careful with this thing it will blow your subs in a heartbeat if your not

Better then the original epicenter
Great bass processor! I like it better than the original epicenter, it has a line driver built in and can be installed in hi level applications.
