Frequently Asked Questions

DBX's Auto-EQ is effective for basic correction, but lacks the advanced customization of some higher-end systems; it's a good starting point, though.
The feedback eliminator works well in many situations, but its success depends heavily on the room acoustics and system gain structure – don't expect miracles.
While technically possible, its feature set is geared towards PA systems; a dedicated AV processor would likely provide better performance and ease of use for home stereo.
