Author Topic: Need Digital Signal Processor Gary DiVito Film Handler Posts: 18 From: Reno Nevada USA Registered: Aug 2017 posted 09-06-2017 02:05 PM                     I recently purchased some AB International amplifiers with XLR balanced connections.I also need a crossover for my speakers.Is there any DSP'S on the market that have EQ & Crossover capability while having balanced inputs. The speakers are 4 way and i am using 2 18" subs. I'd like to find a solution that would allow the cleanest signal path. Cost is not a factor.  |  IP: Logged Mark Gulbrandsen Resident Trollmaster Posts: 16657 From: Music City Registered: Jun 99 posted 09-06-2017 02:25 PM                     Need a few more details first. I assume this is for a screening room or theater. What type of speakers are you using? Also, those are not the greatest sounding amplifiers... So placing a good front end on them is going to result in little return.

They're built like a tank. There are lots of them still operating. Is there a way to use the QSC or for instance a JSD 80 processor with an add on card to connect the amps.  |  IP: Logged Marcel Birgelen Film God Posts: 3357 From: Maastricht, Limburg, Netherlands Registered: Feb 2012 posted 09-06-2017 06:15 PM                     Personally, I don't really like my amps sounding warm and lively, they should just do what an amp should do: Amplify my signals with minimal deformation. Some people might think I'm a cold and clean person... But if money really is no problem, then why not go wild and buy a QSC Q-SYS core with some balanced in- and output modules? They've got all the DSPs you could ever want right there.  |  IP: Logged Gary DiVito Film Handler Posts: 18 From: Reno Nevada USA Registered: Aug 2017 posted 09-06-2017 07:14 PM                     Well I am going to look into Meyer sound thanks everyone for your help.  |  IP: Logged Jay Wyatt Film Handler Posts: 33 From: Los Angeles, CA Registered: Mar 2015 posted 09-06-2017 07:37 PM                    Core 110f would do everything you need here. 8inx16out(balanced) with unlimited DSP. The challenge would be getting all the loudspeaker crossover and tunings from the manufacturer. Perhaps TAD could provide you with FIRs.  |  IP: Logged
