    Certe the DRIVERACK PA DBX is more expensive, but it integrates a correction amplitude frquence in addition to the phasing of a feedback system + anti. To do the same thing with Behringer, you have a mountain behind a DXC2496 DEQ2496 ULTRACURVE for raliser flat put the answer frquense amplitude and enjoy the Antilarsen.

    So in total has two cameras instead of one and the price of 2 is Superior to dbx.

    If I invite myself on this forum is that I want a range of input device with all its functions and would be consistent with SIA SMAART LIVE !!!

    At the moment I think a does not exist?

    EXCELLENT

    Used happily for 3 years.
    Before I had a CX2310 (analog active filter), perfect for beginners.
    The DCX is day and night = digital brings a huge
    for my use (optimize a powerful sound of rock group).
    It also seems very popular with audiophiles (see AF ​​forum).
    Reliable, neutral, accurate and efficient, I could not do without.
    on the other hand, in the beginning it is not easy to master
    as setting options are extensive!
    But the result is well worth widening the meninges ...
    I would buy one without hesitation if mine let me go
    because the price / quality ratio is excellent!

    I changed in the meantime and now I have a Xilica XA2040.
    The DCX brought me a little breath analog (I could not try because my digital sources are only analog) that bothered me but nothing more. The problem was that the bass had become "soft and messy." I found precise bass and punchy with Xilica.
    on the other hand in Xilica, use xconsole to adjust if it is really hassle because unintuitive from the front of the unit. In addition, it must "revive" xconsole from time to time on the ordo otherwise it tends to "hang". Nothing serious for me because once set, I do not touch virtually no (fixed always in the same configuration amps / speakers etc ...).

    In short, the DCX is in my opinion for a beginner who does not have large financial resources because it is comprehensive and easy to adjust ultimately for an attractive rate.
    But it has its limitations in terms of the sound quality (low level for me), I could compare with Xilica I have today is much better in this register.

    Hello,
    BEHRINGER DCX2496 purchased in 2006, it works every day for several hours.
    I have not tried other models, I like the adjustment capabilities, versatility, reliability. Sound!
    What I like least: The accuracy of the limiter, not evident in the navigation menus.

    It heats up very little short, a good buy.
    I recommend this product.

    should not turn a blind eye!
    relatively correct product for those who are not very demanding!
    to find a better than Orpheus there is a world!
    certe the price we bought 5 for 1 behringer Orpheus
    but we also bought clio 5 for the price of a good BMW will be really great!
    I personally work with EV, Orpheus and recently Xilica
    BEHRINGER is re very very far behind!
    cheap investment but totally lost!
    musically at all

    Good filter for a simple system

    (This content has been automatically translated from French)
    I use it for several months;
    I n'aio essqyé no filter pattern, equalizer or anything in the sound before.
    What I like most is that you can do it all, and quite accurate for the price: filter, equalize, to the delay, router ...

    What I like least is the lack of precision converters overall, but we can not really blame him for this award.

    This is a great value for money, a very handy to be taken anywhere

    I would do this choice because I got used to and I know it's a safe bet.

    A device trs trs complete it may be but not quite pro extrment useful.

    Trs breath is reasonable and certainly inaudible signal even with a low trs.

    Rglages can be locked (in whole or part) and then for fixed installations or lease is impeccable.

    The paramtrage is quite tedious, how could they have done differently with the same opportunity?

    The manual is brief, but the use is actually quite intuitive. There is no info in electro-acoustic, nothing to help the nophyte (fawns but all this is a subject too vast and specialist in the same are not of agree on everything)

    I used this Systm with live music and DJ facilities also without problem.

    I build my speakers gnralement same and I can j'apprcie normment matriser so parameter.

    The LORD Systm problem of overlap between the speakers (sub and top for example) may rsoudre without much difficulty. With other Systmes the frquence recovery n'tait CONTRL not well (at least an octave with disturbances). Here I have the tool that allows me to any rgler.

    I used about a dozen configs.

    Prcdemment I built my own filters and needs all ncessaire it!

    Lack may be a limiting RMS power (for the few people who know what a serving!)

    At this price why hsiter? It's really a great tool.

    For once, I'm really happy to Behringer! (J'esprre that I will not change your mind)

The automatic phasing is just great, I'm sorry but there is no automatic linearization, it would have been the icing on the cake, but good. Half as much as the smallest DBX that is not connected to the PC, I am so far happy with this purchase.

    Processor unit, the DCX2496 shines with a neat finish. The quality of the converters is exelente,, even at low level: the breath is negligible. The effectiveness of the corrections, compressor limiters, active filters, etc, ... are simply very effective and accurate.

    The use is a little complicated at first, but with a little game with features, it is possible to tame the beast quickly given the number of functions, do not ask, just to get started! The editor PC is magic! Using become as easy as cabbage!

    Great sound quality, I was surprised that even tried the Behringer reverbs and other mid-range digital systems.

    J'aurrais like a automatic linearization of the response, but for € 400, the product is very honorable, great view. (No, I'm not the seller, must recognize the right products, that's it! )

    The sound seems trs good, Reserved (amlioration possible) tweeters concern of B & W 802S1 (1980) he attacks. Trs well as the possibility to mute the power (in case of power brve example!, I'm afraid to break the tweeters direct attack by more than 100W)
    It heats can be a bit much and I plan to CRER openings to facilitate cooling (loss of warranty, but ...)

    I used the last one month, my MODEL Previous (20 years ;-) dj silent fixed analog 4-way hand-made of APRS Elektor (24 db / octave)
    In my exprience APRS brand, it is a report quality / price ratio.
    A purchase and a solution (active amplification-direct) recommend even in stereo, the price of a good amp trs HC 6 channels as trs OCCAZ affordable and not have to have the last d encoder trick or thing. Amme is a back-up channel in case of breakage ... All you need is a direct between 6 ch. end of the text in November 2008

    Last Day 07 2009:
    APRS searching the internet "DCX2496," I seek the amliorer. using kits and clock power, the device is not guaranteed ... As I attack with digital, I'm not going to change the analog inputs.

    There is indeed little lack of clarity in the upper midrange and treble which I spoke in November and I put down the B & W (I purchased the HP 2496 and at the same time). No excessive noise, but finding the receiver (AVR745 or Yam1400) potentiomtres are placed with APRS.
    J'tais a bit skeptical but the change Selectronic power and linear VCXO Superclock amliore clarity in the treble and mdium. (I finished this August 1, 2009) is however a bit expensive I think (the amount of kit are limits) and many sr risk! See for yourself ...
    Other changes on 8 10 2009 - I think most INTERESTED-replacement op amps by LME49720 (6 eur x12 pice for outputs, watch datasheet poustouflant! The only paramtre o can be beaten is the slew rate is 20V / s is the minimum ncessaire 4V / s because my amp is limited 40V / s el the voltage gain is 20 dB, is not they who will limit this settings) the noise is reduced by 10 dB. It becomes difficult to measure ditorsion (one of the PDO). Clarity wins again (much) my "trick" to test a system that audio:
    focus on one instrument or voice and then another if you can not hear that (that) the you in your (very) good ...
    I did not choose the solution site speaks well known "DCX2496.fr". I cons by the virtual capacitors liaisonde 6 F 47 (replaced by a simple "bridge"). The offset of the DAC and the PDO is so low even with tempratures limits would lead to a fraction of a volt speaker terminals which would lead to a warming say less than 0.01 W and for a certain HP dcalage mcanique a fraction of a mm.
    October 15, 2009 I replaced the DAC of AK4396 by their cousins, I found on Ebay 12 eur, reus in 4 days!
    There remains the possibility to interface digital output (6 channels). This site is about the US http://www.asi-tek.com/ but what a price! (This is info I'm not as good as the kits)

    Perfectionist, I searched in vain for a replaceable at a reasonable price, which I found more than 1000 .. 8000 euro did not convince me. Some models much more expensive also has bugs, watch it on Youtube o ide to change it.

    I still strongly recommend, but do not ask anything of him ... after all the changes made, you get an excellent camera (exceptional?) For less than 700 eur. With these changes, I put a 10!
    I complt all with REV2496 (still available in the States) for the rear speakers (center channel of the amp and 2x Bose 801)

    Hello,

    I use it for a year now, this is as a Clio, it has all the great (and it costs 10 times less) ... I am totally satisfied, it serves more as I use the converter between AES / EBU (out of a DEQ 24/96 of the same brand). The ratio quality price is excellent, and with the exprience, I do it again this choice without hsitation! This sometimes has a reputable brand of products not always terrible but there's really no worries and the sound is! It even supports the comparison with brands "noble" or as XTA Yamaha says it all!

    The shipping program is easy once you get the pig thing!
    However, the manual is fairly explicit. Ah yes ... I've seen better!
    The functions are many, and compltes me more than enough.

    I have some breath down the volume. APRS Checker moult in my installation, it is with the DCX. This is to remind us that he does not rate 300 Euros and there is no secret, there is always better but more expensive!
    If you do that the sound is not a problem. HiFi, it will dpendre your level of rigor and the quality of your dj Facilities Submitted.
    So sound quality issue, I think it's good for the sound system and DJ for a lot of HiFi. True, there are better ... but what price?
    Dfine out your use and your goals. There will always be a product at a fair price that our answer your application. The trick is to know what you do with your system not to go wrong choices. So you will not.

    I use it for more than six months.
    I like ct "Swiss knife".
    I have not tried other brands before. I needed something quickly, but also full no trs much for allowing me to add a sub, (then a 2nd) in my installation and it has done its rle.
    The report price is good quality.
    I would do if I had the choice beginners again ...! But we do beginners once!
    One day he will be on sale and I m'achterais something better. This is the spinning wheel. It allows us to evolve slowly but srement! Meanwhile, the Behringer what they say makes me good service.
    If you have money dpart ds, choose a direct Yamaha SP2060, a DBX 260 or other Diverack Dynacord DSP 244 to be quiet.
    In short, I find that Behringer is well dbrouille sound and not bad as a HiFi in terms of price.
    Also, if you pull the language issue budget and you have to buy everything, I think that it is better, at first, focus on quality speakers and amplifiers. APRS you'll see!
