Dirac - worth activating?

Seems dirac is mostly for ht

I have no idea how you can draw that conclusion from the posts in this thread. Almost all of them are using or recommend trying it for stereo. I use Mini DSP Studio with Dirac Live for stereo listening. Digital out of my cd player to Mini DSP. Digital out of Mini DSP to active speaker system. As stated above, there is a learning curve, but it is very worthwhile for stereo. 

I am not sure why you wouldn't at least try it if you have it. Then you can decide for yourself if you like what it does.

Because stereo is easier to deal with and ht has many more spkrs.  Not sure many use minidsp.  

I have a streamer with dac. Not sure if a mini dsp is possible since it goes between digital source and a dac.

It usually goes between the pre-amp and the amp, or the source and the pre-amp.
(Best on a higher line level side, rather than a cranked down pre-amp).

So on a tape source side would be common.

MiniDSP is but one example.

Car audio is also an area where is it hard to put in draperies over the windows or other treatments. Most of that is 2 channel, and the use of DSP is standard.

Stereo is not easier to deal with, other than 2 is a lower number than say 5. And 2.0 is a lower number than 5.2. People usually do better listening to a single speaker, 2 hides sins, and 5 hides sins even better.

Does anybody have an idea how DDRC-24/ Dirac handles analog input. Does it get reconfigured into a digital signal and then convert back to analog by a DAC in the DDRC? 

If that's the case, is the sound quality degraded by being processed a second time because my streamer has a built in DAC and I go directly from the streamer to my amp. There is no way to integrate the DDRC between steamer and DAC?

And just what the heck does dirac do to the signal?  Anybody know what dirac does under the hood?????
