 I just wanted to give a heads up to all you planar guys that are bi/ tri-amping, there is a DEQX that just got listed on a popular audio site, if you have been thinking about going in that direction. These are very difficult to find used, and this one is around a quarter of new cost.

I have no financial or other interest here.

Hemholtz really helped me get going with my DEQX, including selling me his old one for a very fair price. Personally, I will say that it has been the biggest upgrade in my Maggie system I've experienced. So, I just wanted to share, in case someone may be interested.

 Thanks for the heads up, Cory.

How would you say the DEQX changed the sound of your system for the better? Also how did the DEQX do it, besides active bi-amping, doesn't it compensate for the room acoustics and do speaker correction?

 I recently purchased a DEQX PreMate. I find it imperative to use it for crossover for the subwoofers. The speaker correction and room correction makes a night and day difference too. I can't listen in the bypass mode anymore: it sounds like mush. I can attest to that it is the biggest leap in terms of audio quality in my Maggie based system. Oh that the just released JPLAY 6.1 and Fidelizer Pro 6.8.

 The best way that I could describe what the DEQX did overall for my system:
It took everything that I already had, and snapped it into focus. It was kind of like taking in a familiar, beautiful view, then getting some prescription glasses and seeing everything in its full glory.
Once you have the thing all set up and dialed in, and its not that hard to do, the elusive "rightness" of the music is just there. I'm not just talking about tones and textures, but that something else that we are always looking for and chasing, but never quite get to. The music just flows. I really didn't buy into it all the way before, but I now believe that time and phase alignment (correction) comprise a huge part of what it takes to achieve natural sound.
