[QUOTE="Sguirrelfeather, post: 8874376, member: 668995"] I had an inexpensive Dayton DSP-408 for about a year and that famous ground loop finally crept up on me. Was never there and suddenly it was. Anyway, once I verified it's the DSP and not something wrong with my wiring I decided I didn't want to take a chance on another Dayton, figuring I'm just going to get another with ground loop built in from the factory. lol So, let's upgrade to a decent DPS, right? So then here comes the hard question. I answered most of it. I know If I'm going to spend 300+ for a decent DSP I should probably just spend a couple hundred more for a REALLY good one with more features, options, etc. My problem is I **** at tuning and I just don't have the time. I mean, I think I spent 20+ hours with that DSP and even though I thought it sounded good I don't think I got everything out of it. Part of that could have been the beginners DSP I was using, but I'm wondering if I just don't have the knack for it. Here's the question for anyone who has one or who has played with one. Should I get just a regular high end DSP or would spending $300 more for the DIRAC version of the C-DSP 8x12 make my life worth living again? lol I do enjoy the process, but I enjoy sitting down and listening so much more....plus the wife is tired of me spending time tinkering. I'm really leaning towards the DL version. Thoughts? [/QUOTE]
