I'm sure I've read somewhere that a DSP and LFR type outriggers are available for the M80's.
Did I just dream this one day or is there some truth to it?

Hi brwsaw,

You are correct that they are available; sort of. We have not put them on the site yet because they are in short supply as we are trying to get ahead of the required LFR1100 demand. Hopefully this spring we will be able to make them available for the M80s.

The DSP for the M80s refines the response curves to a level that cannot be achieved otherwise. It is important to note that it will not result in any huge audible improvements as there are no glaring problems with the M80 response curves as they are, but it is a cool device to have in your system.

thankyou for the clarification Ian.So would the dsp be adjustable to accomodate poor room acoustics and less than ideal speaker placement?

The DSPs aren't adjustable.

That would be more or less what Audyssey, MCACC, YPOA etc. does.
