you have a nice rack.

you have a nice rack.

Thanks.

It's one-of-a-kind in the Arts & Crafts style. It has side slats, an adjustable shelf and a drawer on top.

I have a DeltaCad drawing available on request.

Nice, did you tune/modify the Behringer DCX2496 Crossover in any way?

I know that many people mod the DCX for various reasons which I'm not real clear on. I'm pretty much a dummy with electronics and I wouldn't know how to mod the Beghringer even if I wanted to. Fortunately the stock un-modded DCX sounds fine to me as-is. I would love to hear a modded one for comparison.

Nice one Jazzman a quick tidy up of the cables from the TV and it will be spot on.

Nice system. I'd love to hear your speakers.

I see you are using Beringher gear.
Have you looked at the DriveRack products by DBX? http://dbxpro.com/en-US/product_families/driverack
Beringher is ok-ich on the electronics part but it is *not so good* machanically (quality of switches, etc.).
The PA2 for example can replace the two Beringher devices.

I should visit the forum more often... yes, I have read about the DriveRack gear. No doubt it's better made than what I'm using. I especially like the DriveRack user interface. However, the Behringers are working OK and I really can't afford to replace them right now.
