Cool thing about the switch is that it has momentary toggle. The monitor selector is one switch that toggles two pair of monitors. Think of it like dating two beautiful twins that you can switch between. So that gorgeous “hi-fi” sounding d/a conversion can be used for whatever else you like. There is also a second digital input you can use labeled CD. With Focal CMS65 monitors and the D-box d/a conversion all my mixes have translated very nicely. Switching between the two the D-box has a slight lift you can feel. Its not transparent like my Lynx Aurora, but compared to it the D-box has a more “hi-fi” sound to me. The d/a conversion on the D-box sounds so good I would pay the price of the D-box just for it. Since I mentioned the d/a conversion was my favorite feature lets look at that first.
#DANGEROUS DBOX PLUS#
Combined with the Dangerous 2bus-lt and you have 24 tracks of summing plus the d-box features for less than $3,000. You get 8 channels of analog summing, 2 headphones jacks, an extra analog input, talk back, outputs for 2 pair of monitors, a mono switch, and my favorite feature, 2 digital inputs for Dangerous d/a conversion. The D-box is really bang for your buck gear. After researching it and seeing its features compared to its price I went ahead and purchased. When I told my Sweetwater rep I was looking for an analog summing box he pointed me to the Dangerous D-box. Plus the vertical case design of the Mynx would make for an awkward set up in my studio. I was very close to purchasing the SSL 8 channel summing mixer and mynx, but learning it needed special cables was a turn off. Since I won’t be spending $300,00 for an SSL Duality console or $23,000 for the SSL Matrix, I knew an analog summing box was what I needed. After comparing a ITB mix to a mix I did on a SSL duality I knew the analog console sound is what I wanted for my mixes.
