HELIX DSP MINI MK2 6-Channel Digital Signal Processor

HELIX DSP MINI MK2 – 6-channel digital signal processor

Compact six-channel processing for a carefully tuned car audio upgrade. Four RCA and four high-level inputs feed six processed RCA outputs, with an optical digital input for compatible digital sources. A 96kHz sampling rate, 64-bit processing and BurrBrown converters deliver an extended audio bandwidth in a space-saving chassis.

System integration and tuning

High-level and line-level connections allow integration with compatible factory or aftermarket sources. ADEP.3 circuitry helps accommodate factory speaker diagnostics, while the Smart Control Port supports compatible optional control accessories. The processor lets the installer tailor the system to the vehicle and speaker layout rather than relying on the source unit alone.

Installation notes

This is a stand-alone signal processor, not a speaker power amplifier. External amplification is required. Expansion cards, Bluetooth modules, remote controls and measurement equipment are optional and are not included. USB audio streaming on HEC-equipped models requires a compatible optional expansion module; the NEXT DSP ULTRA XT includes USB PerfectStream. Where a digital input accepts a rate higher than 96kHz, this does not change the specified 96kHz internal DSP sampling rate.

What's included

• 1 x HELIX DSP MINI MK2 signal processor.
• 1 x Control Input-to-SCP adaptor.
• 1 x USB cable.
• Mounting material.
• Instruction manual.
