The 2.2x is a newer unit which has a separate section for frequency and time correction of a separate subwoofer in addition to the main speakers. Additionally, the 2.2x being a newer unit operates in the 24/192 format. Supposedly the RCS 2.0 will shortly have a 24/192 upgrade but it is not yet available. If you do not require a subwoofer in addition to your main speakers, the RCS 2.0 is a more cost effective way to go. I find it indispensable in my system.

The supplied A/D and D/A converters are of average quality and as such are not worthy of the type of systems the 2.0 would benefit. Use it as a room correction device only in a system that already has a preamp (or equivalent). Also the 2.0 upgrade to 192kHz/24bit has been seriously delayed. It was due this past summer and the new date is mid-2003.
