I just did a rather similar endeavor, I have a 16 but basically ditched the whole Alpine system. I also have the DSR1, and got it when it first came out. Insanely buggy to be honest, they did a lot of patches to fix issues but still have massive fluctuation in the chimes and Nav prompts which is ear piercing and speaker blowing. The DSP and the app side are very very amazing though, even though Customer service is pretty good its a joint effort from IData and RF so finger pointing exists as they are responsible for different parts. This proved to be a great help for IData CS on the DSR integration http://www.12voltdata.com/viewforum.php?f=427
If I had to do it over again I would have run the PAC AR and used the DSR1 as a stand alone DSP and I think it would be flawless, also with the amount of ability to dial in the DSP youd be missing a lot if you kept the 3.5's on the same channel as the doors and capped then. I initially did the same thing but decided after the whole investment it was worth getting a small amp for the 3.5's so I could really fine tune and boy what a difference, an Alpine KTP 445U for like $135 and Kicker KS 3.5's for $60 made a very noticeable difference. Best of luck and let us know how the DSR works out for you!
