    Some advice on a future setup that I'm looking into putting together.

    Expert advice needed on subwoofer delay and also connections

    I have decided to go with 2 subs that apparently have a fair bit of delay due to all of the processing they do. (KEF KC92). Someone recommended to use the miniDSP 2x4 HD, as it not only does room correction, but also has adjustments for speaker delay. However, the miniDSP 2x4 HD does not have...

    Turning off miniDSP Flex automatically when I sleep my desktop computer?

    I'd like to put miniDSP Flex Balanced into standby when I sleep or shutdown my computer. Is it hard for manufacturers to implement auto standby feature? KRK GoAux4, KEF LSX II LT, Genelec G Three auto standby perfectly (GoAux4 doesn't wake up from standby though). They all wakeup when I need...

    Why does miniDSP has a 0dB peak with Q=0.7 every time the frequency doubles?

    So after a couple months of having my equipment stored, I was finally able to set it up again. I decided to start from scratch and when I logged into miniDSP console, I noticed the PEQ was flat but enabled by default. Like this: So I turned it off and went from there. However, I do have a...

    Neumann kh 120ii alternatives

    Hi all, i'm an electronic music producer & I've been using kh120ii for the past year. I bought the ma-1 microphone/software to calibrate them to my room. However, my main concerns with the speakers are their size, and how that limits their bass response/soundstage. Don't get me wrong, they...

    Active Crossover - I can't do this anymore.

    It has served me well, but I've grown tired of my current crossover. Today, I noticed that I hadn't listened to music in weeks, and when that happens I usually suspect something amiss in my rig that is keeping me away from sour. I noticed two woofers on the left channel were not really...

    DDC + miniDSP: Does it make sense?

    I have been thinking about making changes to my stereo setup. I have been interested in getting a miniDSP Studio (the digital-only one) and to try an R2R DAC since I have never tried that kind of sound before. Anyway, when researching about R2R DACs, I got to Denafrips offerings (Ares II...
