Personally, I haven’t heard anything good coming from these latest designs on the AK7 or the AL6 using DSP. People are oohing and aahing about this new DSP and so far, I haven’t heard anything coming out of it that doesn’t sound sterile, flat, dull and lifeless and I absolutely love the Heritage lines and have a few myself. It’s difficult to get honest reviews these days because enthusiasts are so consumed by marketing hype and the technology involved, talking about the theoretical advantages of an active DSP. In the end, does it sound any better? I don’t know if this DSP is killing the sound or what, but so far, this new AL6 speaker doesn’t sound better than the previous AL5. I’m not necessarily negating that active crossovers can't have their advantages, but for enthusiasts to just jump on the band wagon is a bit much to swallow.
