wwh Posted October 18, 2007 Author Share Posted October 18, 2007 I have considered attempting this using a decent 6-channel sound card and DSP software driving a 6-channel home theater receiver like the Panasonic XR55. Maybe not ideal, but as an experiment. I dunno why I can't remember the receiver at the moment, but it's supposed to have 7(?) channels of the quality digital amps. A lab partner of mine was mentioning them and how they usually go for like $50 on E-Bay or something crazy like that. I'll try to find out what he was talking about. There are some possible concerns with the digital amps, but nothing that couldn't be remedied with a little DSP. Speaking of which, what DSP software are you referring to? BruteFIR, perhaps feeding an M-Audio or RME 6-channel board (something ALSA supports). The Panasonic XR55 (or XR57) is routinely under $300, and I believe has 7 discrete inputs. However, I think it uses all digital internally, so there would be the DAC -> ADC -> DAC problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gonzp Posted October 19, 2007 Share Posted October 19, 2007 wwh, I have got an Almarro A318A 18 WPC SET, a pair of HH Scott 99D 22 WPC PP tube amps and a pair of NOS Valves VRD's. A pair of Heresy's, Lascalla's and K-horns. I have also got a pair of Crites CT 125 tweets, an A/AA crossover from Bob, a set of ALK Jr's built by Mr. Westcott and the ALKs from Mr. Klappenberger. I am willing to let you listen to any/all combinations you choose. PDG Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
