…nice little vid showing the difference between mixing with the HPF (Radius) and EQ (Two Valve).

Also interesting to hear the saturation added by the valves- personally think its a shame there’s no valve option on the Radius, lack of channel meters aside, it’d be almost a full recreation of the V6 then.

    I think they will make one eventually. Unless they fear that would get them into hot water with A&H, or Rigby-Jones doesn’t want it. Neither option makes little sense, as the V6 is discontinued.

    Which reminds me, now so is A&H DB4. Will be interesting to see if A&H will counter the Pioneer V10 with an efx heavy version of Xone 96. I’d buy that. Nothing else would make me get another Xone, still too happy with the PX:5.

      Everyone needs to get a grip and stick with industry standards here

        Homegrove …don’t imagine there’d be any problem with A&H, Andy R-J said they had no interest in making anything at that ‘boutique’ price point ever again!

        If it did have the valves, and some decent channel meters, i’d be sorely tempted by a 2-channel one for a laugh.

        Sort of think they won’t replace the DB4, as the 92 was their best seller by a country mile, and the 96 is the evolution of that. I could see them evolving that design further though, making it more modular or adding more channels maybe..

        Along_the_Wire …for mixers? not Pioneer surely! 😉

          Have that video bookmarked for a listen, but been avoiding as I’m getting more fond of the Radius2 as the weeks go by.

            Unbroken1 still after getting the DB 4 a few months ago I’m kinda tempted to get a radius 2 I think they look and sound really good

              You know it makes sense.

              Can send you some pics of one draped seductively between some Denons if that helps!

                Yes, the DB4 is now discontinued. I bet lots of shops still have stock though, so if you want one now is the time to buy it.

                  Thinking the big red button might be an emergency stop for my mixes!!

                    Mad_Cyril …cool! love this stuff. Some of the big dub soundsystems have bonkers one-off mixers/pre-amps. Loads of FX and EQ’s but not much in the way of cueing as quite often you only run one deck through them.

                    This kinda thing…
