    AVR: Replacement or DIY

    Hi, I have been following ASR for quite some time getting myself educated and looking beyond the audio foolery of the marketing departments. (Many thanks for that) For years now I have been using an AVR in the living room powering a 2ch speaker setup. We’re mainly watching TV and listen to...

    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...

    Test of Dayton Audio DSP-408

    Has any serious testing been done on the Dayton Audio DSP-408? It seems to have amazing capabilities and at a fraction of the cost of corresponding Minidsp products. I would like to know if my old ears could tell the difference, I assume others have to be considering it. I don't mind a little...

    miniDSP Dirac Live causing imaging problems

    Looking for input. I installed Magnariser stands on my Magnepan LRS speakers many months ago. Today moved them from the shop back into the main listening system. Am using a miniDSP DDRC-24 running Dirac Live to blend the two SVS SB-2000 subs with the LRS main speakers. The problem is the...

    MiniDSP with a separate DAC and Preamp

    I'm trying to resolve a 45hz room mode and have been advised to check out MiniDSP. I know a little bit about MiniDSP but I don't fully understand how or where it would fit into my current system. I'm currently running a Chord Hugo TT2 with M-Scaler into a Benchmark LA4 preamp that feeds 2x...

    Split two AES3 or S/PDIF channels into separate cables

    If I have one AES3 or S/PDIF signal containing two channels, is there an off-the-shelf solution to split the two channels into two separate signals without converting to analog? (Not splitting into two identical signals -- I want, e.g., left channel in one cable and right channel in the other...

    Can I use EQAPO when I connect the Mini sp to my PC?

    I inquired about this to minidsp, but I haven't received a reply yet. I have a question for those who use these DSPs (if I had it, I would test it out, but I haven't purchased it yet). There are a few things I am curious about. I would appreciate it if anyone with experience and knowledge of...

    A while back I set out to put the best sound possible (at resonable cost) into our small den. Being only 11’ by 11’, there really isn’t room for a bunch of home theater, audio equipment, or speakers. But I still wanted great sound. Design Targets: Slim mount 65’ TV In-wall speakers 2 hidden...

    Best way to integrate Dirac without compromises?

    Hi everyone! First of all I have to say this community was already very helpful, thank you everyone! So I am in the process of building myself a 2.0 or 2.1 system for Tidal streaming. For amplification I would like to go with the NAD M22 but I have difficulties finding a proper streamer/DAC...

    Recording Latency - MacOS - PreSonus Studio One. MiniDSP, GLM??

    Hello audio nerds! I've been using my M1 Mac Mini with BlackHole + HostingAU + AUNBandEQ to apply my REW correction curve to the entire system output, essentially highjacking the default sound output with a "virtual" audio device. My ADC/DAC is a Motu M4 feeding an SVS PB1000 Pro sub with 85Hz...
