Would I benefit from this in a PA system that already includes a 2 channel 15 band EQ?

The result is definitely different than an EQ. The bass channel is more like an overdrive that doesn't clip (hard to describe it's not distortion) and the high-end is this subtle octave harmonizer. I was very impressed with the inprovement on early 90's gangsta rap that sounds muddy. We use it for our live electronic band to make our sound less muddy and it's really be a big help. I'm not sure it would make a different on the latest music releases though.

It may, or it may not. I have a lot of experience revamping existing PA systems, and you might be surprised how often I improve my client's system by removing components.

Probably not. I do not use a graph eq. Just board eq and sone reverb plus the SX. More than that then it's gets too muddled up. One or the other but not both. I use all Behringer pa stuff and the SX is great.

What you are suggesting will most likely create feedback and/or damage the unit (any brand). If you are using it as a monitor try to get your input feed from the PA. If you can't get an isolated monitor mix from the PA then plug your mic into the B205D and use it to reinforce you own stage mix. Run the output to the PA but...Don't loop back!

Sure, but since the impedance may not be matched you may experience muted bass or other distortions. If one computer's volume is turned up really loud you also risk burning out one of the computers' aux ports.

You can plug 2 + the mixer, eq and other sound processors with no problem. They are very efficient. I only use one outlet for all that

i used mine before my eq THE MANUAL MIGHT RECOMEND THE OPPOSITE BUT I ALSO HAVE A CONCERT SERIES CARVIN BOARD WITH A LOT OF EQ BEFORE IT LEAVES THE BOARD. i still had a problem with feedback when a mic got to near a monitor remedied that by unplugging the horns. my metal band wanted everything almost maxed if your not in need of ear splitting pa you should be able to dial the feedback unit to cover your needs. hollywoodphil

Hooking this unit to your phono input will result in RIAA EQ being applied twice to the signal. You will get the boost but the sound will be terrible. You'd be also running the risk of saturating that input and damage it. The same company sells a MM/MC preamp for slightly more. I'd buy and use that instead.

Yes, no problem. the setup lets you tell the amp what speakers you have on each channel ranging from large to none.

i doubt it. from what i know having your equipment plugged into different circuits would only make the hum worse. in any case if your equipment hums it is probably not worth spending this much money to fix the problem. good equipment doesn't hum no matter where you plug it in. i suggest getting equipment that uses balanced ( XLR ) or digital ( Optical / Coaxial / XLR ) interconnects. Regular consumer unbalanced analog technology is inherently inferior and was never designed for high performance.

Yes it would. You can control the distortion or gain for a cleaner sound if you prefer. These amplugs are a good sound. Not a great sound. But for the convenience it's pretty cool

JasonI like your approach and believe it will work very well as you describe. I agree the last thing one wants is to mess up the other music or instruments signals. Remember to first do what you can avoid microphone feedback. This unit can mess up you voice signal as well. We like our FBQ1000 and use it on every gig.

I'm not familiar with your system, but I doubt that the 901 equalizer would work with it. Without proper EQ, the 901's sound broke. A tape monitor loop (not merely a tape input) or an external processor loop is needed.

It appears you already have a Behringer EQ and crossover, the only advantage of the DCX2496 might be the multiple inputs and outputs.

Sure! It appears that you have two 12AX7's in the preamp section. I think you'll be pleased with the results. Good luck and play hard!

Since there are 2 inputs you'd have to use a splitter box to feed the amp. I haven't done it but I have seen other players doing this. I can always find my "groove" with one or the other channels. They both offer great sounds. This amp has got to be one of the all time best values there is! I've owned Brunos, older Voxes, Matchless, etc. This amp sounds as good as them. No kidding!

Yes, there's not much difference between what you describe and a normal setup with an amp and an internally connected speaker, so the result would be the same, a boost in signal that is adjustable.

You are going to use the FX Send and the Aux Return. This will allow you to pipe the desired amount of effect into the individual channels.
