If you search around here you'll find many experienced users of Inguz DRC that consider it a crucial component in their systems. That being said, there is a steep learning curve and frustration at the beginning is part of the process. I have been using it for several years and seem to get better outcomes each time I use it. If you have to place speakers in a less than ideal location for practical reasons as I do it can be a tremendous benefit.
It will effectively correct bass issues - but in my experience this can sometimes reduce the impact of some recordings. It took me some time to realize this, but sometimes that uneven measured LF response we hate to see is simply part of what we expect from certain types of music and venues. I've heard more than a few DRC users complain that the process "takes their bass away." For example, the gentle LF rolloff Inguz often gives me makes bass guitar lines much more definition, but sometimes reduces the kick of a bass drum. I generally am willing to accept the modest compromise, but sometimes turn off Inguz when I feel things are sounding too "controlled". The other option Inguz offers is a flatness control that allows you add back in some of the defects you've worked so hard to correct. Its funny how you reach for it after all the effort. -- esbrewer Server: 2.4GHz Intel iMac running Mac OS 10.6.2, SBS 7.4.2, Inguz DRC Sources: SB3 (2), SB Boom, NAD C542, NAD T515 Amplification: NAD C720BEE Loudspeakers: Paradigm Studio 20 (v.1), SVS SB-12 Plus Headphones: Grado SR60, Etymotic ER4P http://www.last.fm/user/esbrewer ------------------------------------------------------------------------ esbrewer's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=12409 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=77084 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/audiophiles
