You would probably save yourself much grief by just picking one up through US eBay/Amazon.

There is a Latin/South American version (subsidiary?) of eBay called Mercado Live, with a .br sub-domain. There is also Amazon.com.br.
However, finding a seller that actually has what you want in stock/on hand, and is willing to ship to the US may be a challenge. Then there are the shipping fees and customs to consider.
I am sure there are a few local "repack" companies that can help, but that just adds to the expense/hassle factor. Warranty and/or tech support will likely be non-existent or difficult as well, if the need should arise.

Yeah, I think there are a couple decent 12V DSP units out there. If you don't actually need 8 discreet channels (or the Bluetooth control), that should open up your choices even further.
Maybe an older/used Audio Control unit? I've had good luck with their stuff in the past and everything I've used (EQX/EQL/etc.) was always super clean/quiet and true to spec. YMMV.

No experience shipping out of BR, but when I was selling car parts we gave customers about 50/50 odds that their **** wouldn’t make it through customs. I wouldn’t risk it unless there was no other way

I have family there, but for me to ask them to do a favor and assume the responsibility of buying and shipping something which may or may not arrive or have internal damage or anything else go wrong with it, I wouldn't ask them for myself.

Ask the seller if they would ship to you in the USA.

If you want them to look over a car, take pictures or offer a opinion, that I would ask of them.

It's an 8 channel crossover/ eq/ time alignment/ etc piece for car audio.....
I currently am using a Rockford symmetry which has been my choice for years but I picked up a 4 channel version of the one above and the Bluetooth control is pretty slick which is why I'm trying to source one...
I need 8 channels for my setup (4 way active stereo)...
