Digital speaker crossovers and room correction discussion

(1/7) > >>

HAL:
Is there any interest in digital crossovers for speakers and digital room correction discussions?

Been working with both for many years and will be happy to discuss ideas and equipment tried along the way.

 

Nick B:
I'd welcome your insights and experience

HAL:
So far the list of DSP based crossovers has been:

Behringer DCX2496 (own)
DEQX 2.6P (own) (and newer listening to demos)
MiniDSP (listening to demos)
Danville Signal Processing dspMusik LCD (own)
Perpetual Technologies P-1A for SOCS (own)

Room correction:

MathAudio RoomEQ (own)
Dirac (listening to demos)

Room measurements:

Room EQ Wizard (use)
CLIO (own)
CLIO Pocket (own)
MMK speaker measurement system (co-developed)

Presently the best sounding of the group to me with the Megalith speakers here and others tried is the dspMusik and RoomEQ.  Both have easy setup capabilities and very flexible.   

Only takes very simple measurements to get RoomEQ working and sounding very good in my room.

Not heard everything, but have heard other systems as well at shows.   

To me the most audible part of great DSP crossovers is the ability to capture the soundfield with very accurate channel to channel crossover matching that is extremely difficult with passive components due to their tolerances.  When accurate time delays are needed, it is very easy to add.

I use room correction as part of room tuning.  First are the acoustic treatments (absorption and diffusion) to correct for the normal room bounce problems and bass absorption.  Then use RoomEQ as the last step to integrate the speakers and room.  Done this way has given excellent results in my system.

Hope this starts a conversation.

Hey Hal glad to see you contributing. You are expert enough, thanks for the input.

Great to see you posting. You have the Window applications wired!

Cool, let's see what drives this method.

You know that I tried for several years to get a Windows machine sounding the way I wanted.  Still have it.  Lead on Dartanian!!!
