Copland DRC205 digital room correction

I've owned the DRC 205 now for several months. I do think it is quite an incredible piece of audio tech. It won me over inside the dealer's shop when he switched a Bryston BCD-1 on a Macintosh amp to a pair of 3A speakers. What went from a small, somewhat lifeless soundstage caught between the speakers, to a grand, room filling, slamming soundscape that defied the speakers entirely. And it was still musical! In fact even more so! One of the attributes I find lovely to this piece is it really brings out what the bass response SHOULD be a la anachoic chamber. Really full, vibrant, and fully linear top to bottom frequency. If i were to fault this device I'd have to say it does sometimes quash some of the depth of the soundstaging or maybe a bit of super detailed transients you'd find coming out of a top end expensive player. This is a picky faulting and one that seems to change if I reset the mic placement. I'm sure it's also what my old DAC does vs the newer DAC's in the Copland. But it's not bad for it. Just different. But for it's price point ($3000) it will match up quite fairly and symbiotically to equipment in the same ball park or lower and really make your system shine fantastic. And I've found myself constantly wanting to recallibrate the signal everytime I move or change anything to the point of obssessiveness. And let's face it, in this hobby I don't need anything more to obsess about. Although that can be half the fun! I can say it has done very nicely for just getting more into the music, no if's-ands-or-but's. Purists need not apply as there is always something that can be disected and discredited via numbers, and (I am a victim here too) pure anal overanalysis . Music lovers though "all aboard". Great: yes indeed. Perfect: what is?

I can also say whole-heartedly: put a Virtual Dynamics power cable on it to get some great energy from it and use it on A1 (flat). Using Acoustic Zen Matrix II IC's and they're excellent!

I am resurrecting this thread :D

I have bought a 2nd hand Copland DRC205 and I need the software. Can any of you fellows help med find it? Perhaps "rip" the cd and upload the software?

I have contacted two distributers in Denmark an dasked for the software, and meanwhile I try my luck here.

Best regards, Holmen

I have the program loaded on an old Dell Inspiron laptop running XP.  I was getting ready to dispose of the laptop.  
You can have the whole thing for free.  You will need to cover shipping or send a call tag for pickup.

The laptop won’t run on its battery so must be plugged into the 120V outlet.  I just turned it on.  It works and the DRC 205 program is there.

The cd went with the unit when I sold it, so the whole computer is all I have.

Let me know if this will help you.
