68.0. "Sound processing" by FLOCON::ROBERTS (Mike Roberts, ADG1/Ferney Voltaire) Fri Jan 20 1989 10:00

    I am considering buying the Yamaha DSP-1 Sound Field Processor, together
    with the necessary extra power amp and speakers. Has anyone ever heard
    the product or read any reviews on the it ? Are there any less expensive
    models on the market ?
    
    Any advice gratefully received,
    
    Cheers,
    
    Mike

68.1Stereophile reviewTRUCKS::WINWOODThese are the Good old days.Fri Jan 20 1989 14:2319
    Check US conference DSSDEV::AUDIO.
    
    From there, Stereophile review of DSP-1 (somewhat compressed
    by me);
    
    Digital processor supplies suitable signals for four Amp/speaker
    combinations to synthesize reverberation of either a number of
    real halls or as specified by user in listening room.
    "Rush out and buy" said BS, but use with front channel sound
    routed directly rather than via processor.
    Dolby MP circuitry only fair
    Stereophile Vol.10 No.4, Vol.11 No 3.
    
    The note from which I extracted the above mentions other, cheaper
    models. Sorry, I cannot recall the contributor or the note number
    suggest you do DIR/TIT=Stereophile to locate.

    The list of Sterophile Recommended Components is in the AUDIO
    notesfile, note #1884.  These contain very brief synoposis of
    the Stereophile review.  I have only been subscribing to
    Stereophile for about 2 years, but I will be glad to send you
    a copy of any article I have if you let me know what you want.
    I probably have the Yamaha DSP-1 review at home.  
    
    The recent issue of Stereophile raved about a unit from Lexicon.
    I can send you a copy of that review, also.  
    
    Send me you mailstop.
