Is your system still Analog if you use any form of DSP?
I see recommendations for the use of DSP in room adjustments, subwoofer integration, etc.... If I use DSP as a filter to split off my subs and reduce the load on my mains, is my system no longer analog???
If you want to stay analog. You can actively or passively high pass filter your mains. This really helps integration without dsp. I have nothing against dsp.
If the main speakers are fed by an all analogue path from LP12 to speakers and the DSP is only applied to the signal going to the subwoofers it would be fair to call it an analogue system with DSP subwoofers.
It is an (audio) illusion as is everything sensed and perceived. That allows my mind to make things good or bad.
LOL! I see – your mind is more powerful than mine. In mine, everything that is, is perceived (esse est percipi, for you Berkeleyans out there), but the powers of my mind are unable to control perceptions of bass waves, first reflections, and background noise.
Yes, I use an MEN220, so Ive been told Im no longer analog. Could care less, bi-amping, incorporating a Marchand active crossover, and then adding the MEN220 all took my system from blended mush to cut like a diamond precision. Yes, I know some folks don't like hyper-etched music. I do.
