DBX compressor comparison...

The Marrvel · 3rd February 2006

I just grabbed a DBX 163x for $25 on ebay. I'm going to try it on my vocals/bass/drums. I'm sure I'll be very happy with the purchase considering how cheap it was, but I've noticed that many talk about the 160x alot more for vocals and such.

There's a decent price difference, so in general, how does the 160x sound compared to the 163x?

For around the same price, would there be an advantage in getting a 160x over say an RNC?

Payce!!!!
