The SHD replaced a DEQ/DCX stack in my system. Way nicer in terms of usability and results; hard to compare, really. No problem to gang up a couple of the subs and treat them as a channel, or else add another minidsp box en route.I’m thinking of getting one of these and was wondering if it would work with my current system. I have two subs externally powered and a digital xover controlling the subs (Behringer DCX2496). My monitors have passive xovers and I have a third sub that I would like to integrate into the system. This unit would replace my preamp and the DCX. Will the Minidsp be suitable for my system? Also thinking about adding a fourth sub to even our room response.
My current system sounds very good and measures pretty flat in room. The EQ function on the DCX works pretty well but I expect this new technology to be an improvement and it’s easier to use. The DCX is a pro crossover and is not as user friendly as the Dirac system. I am currently using an Omnimic to measure response and will double check the Minidsp measurements with the Omnimic. Any advice would be appreciated. Want to find out before I pull the trigger on the Minidsp because I don’t think they allow returns.
Not sure exactly what you meant by double check, but my impression is that SHD only works with UMIK-1.
