Im old school when it comes to DSP, even though it has a place. Two  of my friends are DSP fans, but they would need to come here and set it up

Are you referring to DSP XO? My KCIIs are conventional passive XOs

Curious. What other 'crap' are you referring to with your EP 3.0s? 
Balanced preamp recommendation : w4s, hegel, parasound
There's a Audio Alchemy DDP-1 + PS 5 for a great ask  of $1500 at AudioMart . I love mine 
I went from Class D to Luxman A/AB - And most of what you think is wrong
ric, I am roughly 2 hours south of PhilI have a couple different XLR cables I could send, but neither comes close to my WireWorld XLRs, and that could be the issue many are having; that being their ICs and speaker cables simply are not a good matc...

golfnuttz, 100 times? you tend to over exaggerate and are a bit misinformed; IcePowers' ability to drive difficult loads, oh, and FYI, the EVS consists of 2 1200AS1s’ which are mono modules

mapman +1golfnutz, Your opinion s just that. I have owned quite a few class Ds, including my current (npi) Audio Alchemy DPA-1 (125 wpc) which sounds terrific (see Mar/April 2016 TAS Review) and PS Audio M700s, which sounded excellent and provided...

Just spoke with ric via phone, looks like mine will not be ready to ship until late next week. I told him he should let people know what his time frame is. I think he’s been preoccupied but now ready to stay focusedHard for me to imagine zero impr...

Jetter Whether you are interested in my reports is up to you Do not confuse me with the factsI have been an audiophile for 40+ years and even owned a retail company, and have read a ton of magazine reviews that left me perplexed as I had owned a...

toetap, Fortunately (for those of us who are in the market for a new class D), ric is not governed by the budget constraints of manufacturers who are not interested in going the extra mile, but will spend said monies on a prettier face plate. Ill ...

Just an FYI, I was reading my Audio Alchemy manuals last night, Turns out it is not 175 wpc, but 125 @ 8ohms and 200 @ 4 ohms. No wonder the 350wpc PSA M700s sounded significantly beefier.Now, if I could just get an update on delivery of my EVS 12... 
Balanced vs RCA between amp/preamp
audiorustyIm envious. I always lusted for A-S kit, but was always out of my budget. Perhaps the closest I got was when I had Accoustats with their OTL amps. Did a few modes to the boards + chips and cryoed NOS tubes. Even if the sound was comparab...

erikgood luck with trying to shut him up. Clearly he doesn't get the message? 
Balanced vs RCA between amp/preamp
I began my transition from rca to diff balanced kit 2 decades ago.Same nonsense appears here as back  then (that they are ONLY for long runs) I have heard differences between 0.5m and 1.0m XLRsDif balanced is basically 2 totally independent channe... 
Power conditioners under $1000?
I personally cannot recommend ol PS Audio . I had a Premier Power Plant which was some 8 years old when I sent it back for repairs. They basically gutted it and returned (very generous cost at the time) but I still had issues. Hopefully the newer ...
