Is this the top of the line Sonic Maximizer?

The answer is yes; relatively. The 882i is an excellent tool, I've had it for years now, and it makes my set-up sound bigger (and sharper) than it really is. The low boost really sets your subs free!

As far as I know this is the top of the line product, for this piece of equipment, from this manufacturer. It is really helpful if you can't afford an expensive set of passive speakers, it makes even a cheap set of speakers sound like more expensive ones.

I think so. I have a 40 inch in a smaller room, have never maxed out the sound. Also, I have never heard it sounding distorted.

Yes I love it... it's a great sound and I have tried all sorts of expensive gadgets but this is perfect!

I have not personally compared, however here is an article that may help answer some questions: http://www.head-fi.org/t/673186/nuforce-mmp-review Michael @ Kraft Street Audio

I cannot comment on that. My wife bought me the Braven 710 as a gift. Side by side, the Fugoo is far superior in sound quality. I kept both but the Fugoo sound is head and shoulders above the Braven.

I had problems with the one I purchased, then found out that there is no product support at Numark for this unit. I sent mine back. If you can determine the bit rate of your onboard sound device, and it's 24bit, you won't find anything better under $300. I have a Soundblaster Xfi HD model SB1240 external USB sound card for my laptop (which has a 16bit sound device) and am very happy with it.

Definitely worth it It uses the same sound chip that is used by the HT Omega Claro (a $175 sound card recognized as one of the best); I have both the Omega and the Xonar in my household, and it's impossible to tell the difference in clarity between the two. But I will tell you that I would take the Xonar over the Omega anytime simply for its full EAX support and compatibility with games ... after hearing mine my oldest daughter actually replaced her Omega card with this one last year, and couldn't be happier. As for drivers, I do not use the official Asus drivers (I use the community made Unixonar package, which looks identical on the surface but fixes a number of driver issues that have not as yet been fixed by Asus). Note that whichever driver set you use, avoid fiddling with any of the DSP modes in the control panel, and you'll be fine--I have found that accidentally leaving the wrong one activated will sometimes crash some games.

The xls is a line up in quality. Some of them have double woofers. I think they put more money into the tweeter/ horn too. I don't own one. This product has spectacular clarity, volume and clarity for the price. It's can be little bass heavy if there is no equalizer. If you can afford the xls, it's probably better for the highs.

It has plenty features even more when you use the software. It is loud!!! Don't be fooled by the modest price. It can compete with higher priced amps.

This has "sound virtualizer" which seems to be pretty much the same as Phillips' Increadible Surround. It only has on or off. No varying the level of Increadible Surround. There are also preset EQs as well as separate bass and treble controls. This thing sounds great on mids and highs. Lows are a bit rolled off but for the size it does ok. Has dual ports in the back so if you put it in a corner or near a wall you'll get more output. I was looking for a unit with "Increadible Surround" but settled on this one. If it had a seperate sub it would be perfect. Still better than most. Gets pretty loud if you want it to without a lot of distortion.

your bbe maximize just gives you a loudness boost, while the driverack will do what an equalizer and a crossover will do together, so if you buy a driverack you could eliminate the use of these two devices, but if your sound is good right now save yourself some money cause this thing is expensive.

I have Boombotrex, and Audible Rush kicks it's butt. Much much louder, much richer sound and much much much longer battery life.

I use mine hooked to an amp all the time.I set the amp on clean setting then use the sonic 6 to set the amp sound I want.

I do not know but if I was you I would steer clear of sonic blade. I have purchased two and both have had faults which could not be rectified

I am definitely not a sound expert. And more of a techie who loves loud parties. I have the NU1000 connected to 2 separate EUROLIVE B212D, rated 550 Watts each. And this amp performs without a sweat. I can only get the volume to about 50% - 60% before the pretty women are complaining that theirs ears cannot take it. But even at high volumes, the amp does not overheat, no sound distortion, nice base, no power outages, no lights dimming. So I am sure 4 200W speakers will be fine. definitely throw in an equalizer to take full advantage of the 12' Woofer. I run my parties thru a laptop. So most software based equalizers are crappy. Better to get a real dedicated equalizer. I am definitely not a sound expert. And more of a techie who loves loud parties.

In the past 8-9 years, I have only used a Behringer for my sound board. It puts out plenty of power, and I use only Bose speakers for the very best sound. I would recommend this without hesitation..

Yes John, it works great. I looks cool and it makes the sound much greater.
