    Hypex plate amp FA501

    Hi people, Is there a means of driving the Hypex built-in DSP from REW? I now have two subs with these amps fitted, and have done a manual setup which works quite well, but I can't help feeling setup would have been quicker and more accurate with REW driving the hypex software.

    On the ground ( which is a relatively lightweight suspended floor at 1st floor level) the subs shook and vibrated and excited every floor resonance ( of which there are many) . This coloured the sound and every kick drum, string bass , and organ pedal pipe had the same "character". Lifting the...

    I doubt you'll ever sort out the LF response with DSP alone. Only absorption in the right places and correct speaker placement will tame those room modes.

    The whole point of mounting them on the wall is to stop vibration transfer. My walls are stone and brick built, plaster-finished and are very solid. There is no vibration transfer to the turntable mounted on the same wall. The shelves are fixed with 6 off 14mm / 5/8" expanding steel anchor...

    Hello from SW France

    I'm a retired BBC sound mixer. I listen to just about every genre of music from Gregorian chant to jazz and most things inbetween. I have a library of vinyl, CD, DAT and 24bit downloads, and try and go to music events as often as possible. I have a soft spot for "La Maitrise de Toulouse", the...

    My salon with music

    Thanks for the comment. The room, as well as being small, has a fairly lightweight suspended wooden floor, and the subs on the floor were a nightmare and excited every resonance they could find! The wall is solid, so the T/T and subs are hung off it so that only the air moves! The Harbeths are...

    Thorens TD160 with AT95/ paratrace feeds a Bryston BP16 pre, 10B crossover, 4BSST and Harbeth M30s. Subs are B&W ASW750s eq'd via the Behringer Ultracurve. CD transport is Cambridge Audio. PC feeds 96/24 bit audio via fibre-optic, and images via HDMI to TV. Acoustic treatment is minimal, with 3...

    Dual Sub - Identical or not

    I'm running two B&W ASW 750 subs but I've changed the amplifier in one of them recently for a Hypex FA 501 to replace the faulty ASW800. Sounds as good as ever!
