Hello,
I'm looking for some information about how the Accuphase DF55 delay works. Here is the use case. The system is an 8 active amps driven by two Accuphase digital filters DF55 (https://www.accuphase.com/cat/df-55_e.pdf). The filter allows to digitally align the delay of all eight drivers based on the farther one which becomes the reference (the 0 point). All other 7 drivers are digitally delayed to align with the reference. This works very well on the filter which has the reference. But on the other filter, which all channels need to aligned with the reference, this doesn't work. The delay alignment is consistent if you set three of the four channels but once you increase the delay of the fourth channel the delay of the three other changes.
More in details, the 8 channels are
First DF55
When i remeasure the delay once the digital delays have been inserted
First F55
Best

First DF55
- Sub Low initial delay 11.0 m (this becomes the reference, all others need to be aligned on 11.0m)
- Low initial delay 5.9m, added digital delay +5.1m
- Low Medium initial delay 6.0m, added digital delay +5m
- Medium 1 initial delay 6.4m added digital delay +4.6m
- Medium 2 initial delay 6.9m added digital delay +4.1m
- High Medium initial delay 5.2m added digital delay +5.2m
- High initial delay 4.1m added digital delay +6.9m
