EQ / Dsp... Who’s using them?

I’ve just recently started playing with dsp and eq’s and am curious as to what eq’s and or dsp programs you guys are using.  I’ve got Sonarworks, which I like but it ties me to my laptop as the source which I’m not trying to do so I’m not using it.

 I wanted a Loki mini + but have been waiting for 2 months so went and bought a dbx 15 band eq. I’m liking the eq so much that I’m wondering if there is something better out there for a reasonable amount (manley’s massive passive looks awesome but is waaay out of my price range).

And last, is anyone out there using any dspeaker antimode products and if so, how are you using it, how do you like it and have you compared it to anything else?

Thanks!

Thanks Wolf_Garcia!  I’m planning on getting a loki mini plus once they available.

I kind of get what was said about the eq’s or dsp robbing the soul.  Hard to explain but for me, eq’s and dsp sound better but I lose some openess and transparency.

Anyhow, yes, I agree that acoustic treatments and speaker / listener placement need to be addressed first, which I’ve done but its fun to try to eq options and dsp as well.

I found that just by using the measurement part of Sonarworks really helped me figure out where to best place my speakers for the smoothest frequency response, exactly what was said earlier in this thread about sub placement.

Anyhow, Thanks again @wolf_garcia  for your input about the loki.  I’ve known you for awhile now here and knew that you have a background in prosound so I value your input on that 👍
