The six inputs on the DQXS allow it to interface with a multitude of source units, whether they have two, four, their six output channels. The DQXS's programming menu actually allows a user to select an input configuration that optimizes the systems performance. Additionally, the DQXS is equipped with high impedance inputs, which means it can accept high wattage signals from most factory installed source units and amplifiers.
The DQXS begins with AudioControl's full compliment of equalization controls. The front and subwoofer channels offer precise, one-third octave spaced constant-Q equalization for each channel plus two completely programmable parametric equalization controls. The rear channels also have two completely independent parametric equalizers plus 19 one-half octave spaced controls per channel. All told, the DQXS offers users a total of 142 equalization filters!
Additionally, AudioControl has equipped the DQXS with a full 3-way electronic crossover. A user has the ability to send signals to front highpass, front bandpass, rear highpass and subwoofer outputs. An exclusive AudioControl feature, the Programmable Frequency Match (PFM) subsonic filter is also provided to minimize any infrasonic signals from compromising the performance of the system. Given that the DQXS is digitally controlled, a user can easily select crossover points in precise 1/12-octave increments.
All crossovers and equalization settings can be saved and or recalled by a user from one of eight non-volatile memory locations. Like AudioControl's other digital processors, the DQXS utilizes a unique 24-bit digital signal processor (DSP) that is specially designed for use in equalization and dynamics processing. In addition, matching 24-bit, AD/DA converters are incorporated for maximum dynamic range and sound quality.
