mObridge amp in non-B&O system - HD Radio Retrofit

[AGM Everglades]

Is there a @mObridge amp now for non-b&o systems? I have a full audio control DSP with front 3 way components, 2 ways in the pods and a down firing 12” isobaric kicker. Sounds great but always looking at other options.

@BlarneyStoned I'd like to convert to the B&O before deciding to get the mObridge dsp/amp. To just convert to the B&O, would it just be a component swap with FORScan changes, or would there be any ACM wiring harness difference between the two?

I swapped in the B&O ACM and found I could code it in Forscan as if it were the base ACM. It played my stock 4 speaker setup fine. Actually, if I had not already possessed the AudioControl D-6.1200 DSP amp I would have gone mObridge and run the A2B and CAN wiring myself if their harness did not include it…but I think they now offer that in their new non-B&O kit.

If you want a proper B&O set up, you will need the B&O amp (which uses a different wiring harness than the sub-only amp), A2B wiring, to extend the CAN bus to the amp, plus a harness to tie into the ACM one to run the front speakers. It's more than just the ACM swap to get a working system.

However, as @djcwardog mentioned, you CAN code the ACM to output the same analog signals as the non B&O ACM.
