PX v PA

Unknown

What is the main difference between PA & PX. Of course I know that first is 3x2 and second is 2x2. Why PX is called \"for powered speakers\". Is it only? PA for all purpose and PX only for powered? What is a difference for dbx if amplifier is inside or outside of speaker cabinet? :?:

OK. I found any information on this forum.

There are almost the same. But PX has no delay.

When you start digging there is significant difference...
The delay as you have pointed out
4 outs versus 6
the inputs CAN NOT be unlinked
you can ONLY do 2x2 or 2x4 (or 1x1... with only using one input/output)
the PX does NOT have the trun on/off thump
I believe it sounds quieter than the DRPA

But the 260 blows them both away in EVERY catagory.. and so much more...

Not to beat a dead horse guys, but if your amps are turned off before you turn off the PX/PA etc. There will be no thump. Likewise if you turn your Driverack on before you turn you amps on, there will be no thump.
BUT: you must let your DriveRack finish loading or completing it's diagnostic before you turn on your amps. If you don't it won't pass a signal and you'll be sitting around wasting valuable setup time wondering whats wrong with your $500.00 piece of gear. So make sure the lights on your PA/PX are through blinking and everything before you turn on your amps.
