JBL MSC-1 vs KRK Ergo
« on: 26 Apr 2011, 04:22 pm »
Anyone try either or ideally both of these units? I would buy one on the spot if either supported stereo subs! Not exactly sure if this is the right circle so please move if necessary.

Oh I did not see this just a simple way to correct a bit of room response! I have a well treated room that i think could benefit from some minor correction.

i had a krk ergo for a long time but never used it, waiting for them to come out with the stupid windows 7 drivers. sold it before they came out. i have used room perfect before however and was very happy with it (a standalone lyngdorf rp-1). i have never seen a word said about the msc-1, however it's been awhile since i looked. i personally would look also at an antimode.

They just lowered the price of the msc I may just plunk down. Neither unit support multiple subs which would be ideal for me. I have experimented with room correction but like how simple these units are....
I am super happy with my room but as always there is room for improvement!

I've been wanting to try out the Audyssey system, myself.

The Audyssey stuff is great in a receiver but for two channel stuff the options are limited or expensive. The Arc is cool but then everything has to run through a plugin. I do like how they use multiple measurement points like the more professional stuff from Meyer SIM or Smaart but those have a steep learning curves and price points!

Yeah, the stand-alone version is spendy. :o

Agreed and probably well worth the extra coin but too rich for my blood!
