It's not the cheapest approach, since the Steinberg is about $700, but one can achieve very good fidelity and a very low noise floor, and it's very flexible.
    Another PC DSP package that I have had good experience with is: Advanced Acourate Digital XO Time Alignment Driver Linearization Walkthrough

    Dbx 260

    Is the DBX260 still considered a good DSP for home use. I have a chance to pick one up locally and wanted to know if this would be a good choice considering this will be my first adventure into DSP.

    I often have the same kind of quandaries about using my minidsp. But I can't find any faults in it other then the digital factor. I try not to be an analog snob.

    But hey, fun time is fun time.

    My take on it is yes. It has been my experience that this little box is seldom the weak link in a system. Perfect, no but damn good and the fact that is fully functional through the front panel is a real nice feature even though the GUI is a bit easier through a PC.

    I personally have no experience with any unit that competes with it for the money. That said there is a lot of stuff out there.

    All the best,
    Barry.
    If we knew what the hell we were doing, we wouldn't call it research would we.

    Let us know how you like it. I have been using one for a few months for a home theater . Using 2 crown k2's bridged for the bottoms and a k1 for the horns on a 4731x setup. It has worked great for music and movies.

    Unfortunately the unit was a DBX Driverack PA. The search continues.
