My listening room has all sorts of sonic nightmares: laminate floor, lots of windows, not much in wall hangings...basically all sorts of reflective surfaces.After fiddling around with DIY tube amps/pres, I realized that purist components (i.e. no tone controls) are just not going to work in a room with this many sonic speedbumps. So I called it good, bought a pair of Vandersteen 2C's and a near top-of-the-line Denon AVR-3805 receiver. The Denon is almost always in 2-channel mode (even for movies).
The thing I liked about the Denon is its digital room EQ function. I figured that might be a way to tame the beast. It does what it says on the tin: you hook up a mic and let it do some pink noise blasts until it does some autocorrecting on your signal. The problem is that it's imprecise and doesn't allow for fine-tuning (unless you just throw out all of the autoconfigured settings and create you own, on an inferior manual version of the program.
So my question is, has anyone ever used an outboard Behringer digital EQ DEQ2496 with something like the Denon? The Denon has both digital in and out, so I'm wondering if I could hook up the DEQ2496 as kind of a tape loop configuration that's alway on? I'm hoping the Behringer would give me more consistent control over room correction.
If anyone has tried this, please respond. And thanks!
