What are your opinions of DSP's for speakers

If it had better sales, Boy would they get tic'd...*G*

I bought a pair of dsp 8000’s after getting frustrated trying to get a quality system completed. Without the means or experience to match speakers and components to my room while trying to stay in budget was driving me mad. 
 

I remember my first listening session with my wife after upgrading them to se (special edition) and sitting in awe at how beautiful everything sounded. I didn’t realize yet that hifi was more than music to me but also an upgrade hobby and after a couple years I got the itch again. There’s not a lot of tweaking left for owners of dsp systems and while my 8K’s still give goosebumps they don’t satisfy my need for the occasional new car smell’.

  For those of us that fell in love with the speakers at shop demo only to bring them home and have them sound like crap will appreciate the consistency of active dsp systems.

@markley -- "What is DSP?"

I don't see anyone has answered your question. DSP is the acronym for Digital Signal Processing.  It is often implemented these days using parametic EQ which can fine tune the equalization much more specifically than traditional EQ or tone controls.  It is usually setup with a measurement microphone using frequency sweeps to find peaks and valleys for the in-room response.

True we tend to assume everyone responding to this thread knows what dsp stands for, but our op is pretty clear what he wants to hear from us or he probably would have asked ‘what is dsp?’

I was at Axpona as well but didn't take the time to hear the Legacy system but I did stop in the Dutch & Dutch room to hear the 8c's.  A brief demo was done for us and I was as impressed as I thought I would be by them.  Anyone else check out Dutch & Dutch and have a comment?
