Hybrid Audio Legatia L2

A Full-System Preamp for people who are serious about sound quality!

Here is an Equalizer/Preamp worthy of the Zapco name. The ASP-Q1 was not designed to be an “accessory” toy or a piece of jewelry for the dash. The ASP-Q1 was designed to be an effective tool in tuning and controlling the sound of a car audio system. As a dash mount equalizer it is unmatched. With 5 bands of parametric equalization you can put up ±18dB of correction at any points in the frequency spectrum with out being limited by fixed center points. With audiophile grade internal components in the signal path and precision pots for all adjustments, the sound will be clean and transparent, with rock-solid bass and crystal clear highs. The ASP-Q1 excels as a crossover as well. You can configure a 2-way with bass and dual highs or as a 3-way crossover with a band pass. The aux input with its own input gain controls allow a portable source to be plugged in and level matched to the main input.  The over-sized power supply gives you  a 9.5 volt line driver with 14 volts available for peaks. This gives the ASP-Q1 plenty of headroom so even on the biggest signal peaks you amp will get a clean distortion-free signal. The ASP-Q1 is more than just an Equalizer. It is a true control preamp for your sound system.

Features and Functions

• Five bands of Parametric Equalization: Since no two cars are the same, there is no way for us to know exactly where the center points need to be in any particular car. The ASP-Q1 lets you vary the center point of each of your 5 EQ bands to put the correction exactly where you need it to custom tune your system to your car.

• Variable 18dB/octave electronic crossover: There are 4 crossover filters on the ASP-Q1. You can only 3 filters to configure a 2-way system with a subwoofer and front and rear speakers with high pass or full range and fade front to back from the EQ. You can also use all 4 filters and configure an active 3-way system with a woofer, a band passed midrange and a high pass for a tweeter.

• Separate Bass Control: Bass output is controlled separately. The bass lever lets you balance the bass to the highs. As well as the crossover filter for the bass there is a bass phase control to adjust the phase of the bass signal from 0 to 180 degrees to help align the bass wave to the rest of the system.

• Auxiliary input: The ASP-Q1 has an auxiliary input so you can play from another in-car source or from a portable player.

• Input gain controls: Each channel of both main and Auxiliary input has its own input signal adjustment.

• Balanced/Unbalanced Inputs: The ASP-Q1 can accept either balanced inputs, with a Bal/UnBal switch for Main-in and Aux-in.

• Tiffany style panel mount RCA connectors: These give positive, trouble-free RCA signal connection

• High voltage power supply: The ASP-Q1 has a remote high voltage power supply for or a true 9.5 Volt RMS preamp output.

In 2012 Zapco introduced the new Z-Series of SQ amps. These amps were not conceived so much by our engineers, as by input from audiophiles and car sound fanatics around the world. We experimented with internal components and new circuits to see if we could take our amps to the next level of sound quality by investing in different internal components and circuit designs, and the resulting Z-Series amps were the results of this unique development method. 

This year we stepped back and took a look at the amp that started it all. The Z-Series amplifier. We knew we could bring the price down, because over the last few years. This allowed us to build the Z-series AP and SP amps cost only a little more than the original Z-Series so the prices weren't that far apart. Now we have brought the Z-Series into the same plant as the newer models. That lowers the price, but what could we do the make it better? We saw that a lot of the non-critical parts from the AP and SP amps could be used in the new Z-Series as well. Even with some of the SQ parts we save by buying more so, we can use those in the Z-series also.

Legatia tweeters offer flexible mounting options and provide hours of listening pleasure.

The L1V2 is ideal in 3-way front stages, while the L1 Pro is designed with a low resonance, ideal for 2-way use. The L1V2NH is an exceptionally small, housing-less version of the L1V2 with a mounting hole tapped and ready for install.

This newest generation (2020) high-performance package is a 2-way component system comprising one pair each of MT171 tweeters, MF172 woofers, and X272 crossovers along with all mounting hardware. The brand-new MT171 tweeter is equipped with the new coated textile dome, neodymium magnet system, 28mm aluminum voice-coil for providing a flatter frequency response and more detailed and natural reproduction. Equipped with the new optimized MSP Magnesium Silicate Polymer (MSP) cone, 65mm aluminum voice-coil, and aluminum basket, the brand-new MF172 woofer achieves better control and greater linearity to deliver a very dynamic, natural sound. The X272 is designed for the integration of an automotive stereo system comprising a pair of each of the MT171 tweeters and MF172 woofers.
