After some research I purchased a Behringer DEQ2496 and calibration microphone from Amazon as a "last resort" attempt to solve a problem with my (expensive) hi-fi - a noticeable and distracting bass boom. Previously I had spent many months repositioning my speakers (PMC OB1i's), experimenting with different listening positions, and trying foam bass traps and lots of extra soft furnishings as it was obvious that the boom was a problem with my room acoustics, not the equipment.The Behringer unit was connected between the digital output of my Cyrus CD player and DAC as it seemed to me that any additional analogue conversion in the signal path would be detrimental.

Superb product fast delivery good price.In essence this product allows you to use a measuring microphone and your speakers/hi fi system and measure then tune your audio to the room in which it is playing. Room dimensions can reinforce frequencies and make systems sound boomy - very simplified explanation. Wall, floor and ceiling surfaces and materials can also make a room sound dull or over-bright. Speakers placement, crossovers, drivers and cabinets may create troughs and peaks in their frequency ranges that emphasise/ de-emphasise parts of your music. As can other parts of your system.It allows you to alter stereo width/ separation on recordings.

I wanted this as a mastering tool for home recording projects, but also as an EQ for my system.I use a pro amp driven by the preamp out (before the tone stack) of an old integrated.Its a great amp, but has an overly strident midrange.So, kill two birds with one stone - set up so that I can ensure recordings sound good after mixing (I have a CD recorder) in my usual listening space whose characteristics I am used to, and give me a really good EQ to tweak the sound of my old pro amp.There is quite a steep learning curve with this unit.I confess to not reading the instructions properly initially, to the detriment of my speakers.Be careful that levels are properly set if you intend to use the auto EQ feature.Pink noise kills tweeters stone dead.Others have gone into more detail ,

Purchased for use in small demo studio.A few years ago Behringer used to be AKA for cheap and nasty but lots of "nice" flashing lights. Times have changed. Behringer's keen pricing has obviously let them achieve some volume and economies of scale despite the tough economy, which they've clearly ploughed back into R&D.This unit is extremely easy to understand and configure. Feature packed, yet easy to navigate menus. I place the unit between desk and monitors using the digital s/p DIF. It is low noise and input/output levels are fully controlable and accurate. The RTA is great for analysing / autocorrecting the listening space and for tweaking different monitor sets,

I needed to eq my 2.1 studio monitor system (I can hear the outrage from the purists already!). There's only so much you can do to physically nullify room modes, so after trying a stereo 31 band graphic and returning it due to the underwhelming results, I chose to try the DEQ2496 because it has a spectrum analyser that measures the listening position and auto-adjusts a graphic eq to reduce peaks and troughs (requires a measurement mic). I then did a little extra tweaking by adding a parametric eq and then saving this to one of many memory locations. The end result is a monitoring system that matches my Sony MDR-7506 headphones almost exactly. Job done.This unit can do much more than I am using them for.

I bought the Ultra Curve to EQ my main PA using the 32 band graphic and the frequency analyzer. I don't use the other parts (feed back killer, parametric )I have always built my own PA cabs and tried to balance the sound by ear. I have had to down size my system and I wasn't happy with the sound I only had a15 band graphic so I looked at other 32 band graphics and relised that to get a good sound by ear would be difficult.Using the ECM8000 measurement mic and the frequency analyzer was easy and gave me the best sound I have had in the past 20 years. It's also good at EQing a room before a gig The pink noise that you have to put out last less than a minute.I also use it to EQ the room and sound

I use this to EQ my tops, but even when I attached it to my home speakers in my bedroom, the improvement after RTA was simply stunning. Every stereo should have one of these attached, purely for the RTA functionality. The extra features (like extra outs, stereo width (which allows mixing down to mono)) makes this a great purchase! :)

Using this for room EQ - great product and auto EQ effectively removing unwanted room resonances (not using any of the other features at the moment)4* as had to send first unit back as faulty but getting 5* performance at the moment.
