DJ Equipment Question
Hey everyone,
I’m still pretty novice when it comes to tuning and processing PA systems, so I’d really appreciate some advice.
My current setup is:
• 2 JBL SRX835P
• 1 JBL PRX635
• 1 Yorkville LS801P
• Behringer Ultragraph Pro FBQ3102HD 31-band EQ
I’ve been considering getting a dbx DriveRack 260, but I’m wondering if it would actually make a big difference compared to just using my current 31-band EQ.
From what I understand, the DriveRack already has EQ built in, but it also seems like a lot of people recommend it more for speaker protection, crossover control, limiting, and overall system tuning rather than just EQ alone.
My main goal is:
• Not to damage or blow my speakers
• Get the system playing as clean, crisp, and loud as possible
• Learn how to get the best and safest performance out of my setup
So I guess my questions are:
1. Would a DriveRack 260 make a noticeable difference with my setup?
2. Is it worth getting if I already have a 31-band EQ?
3. Would it actually help protect my speakers and make the system sound better?
4. How would you guys run / tune this setup properly?
Any beginner-friendly advice would really help. Thanks in advance!
