Both the BitNove and the DSR1 create a center channel from the left and right front inputs. In the BitNove software for instance, the attached screens show how it is configured and set up. The DSR1 has a similar app but only for phones and tablets I believe.
It is, but after all the hassle I went through with the Maestro AR and the DSR1, I wanted nothing to do with those parts. Everyone's mileage may vary, but I was done with adding more parts to what I wanted at the end.
Ok... this will be a fairly long and potentially boring reply, but here goes... :)
A bit of history first. I initially tried to use an iDatalink Maestro AR with the Kenwood 6DSP only to find out after getting everything delivered that the Maestro AR + Kenwood 6DSP is not supported on the 2018...
There would probably be some value but difficult to say how much. I wasn't able to get much going with the DSR1 and ended up returning it. The options in the app looked interesting for the time correction and whatnot, but it was very unreliable for me prior to the 1.3 firmware.
I can't speak with complete accuracy around the 2016 7 speaker setups, but I would find it hard to believe you wouldn't have an amplifier in there for it. If there is indeed an amplifier, then the DSR1 would be something you would want to look at for sure. The DSR1 and Maestro AR units remove...
The A03 harness has three plugs (black, brown and grey I think they were). 12v and ground were there plus the four low level inputs. The grey connector on the harness has the four 'main' speakers, FR/L and RR/L. In my setup, these go to the two woofers in the lower front door and the two...
I did this just last week. I was having an incredibly frustrating time with the DSR1 and ended up returning it. I kept the A03 harness and picked up an Audison Bit Nove. Right from the get go I was happier with the result. I have the four inputs from the head unit set to low level using...
I am having the damndest time trying to get an almost identical setup configured. The perfecttune app thinks I am in universal mode even though I have selected the af03 from the maestra setup site and also in the vehicle configuration. Can you post a screenshot of your dsr1 connection details...
