complcated behringer DEQ2496 question??

[lbstyling]

hey all,
ok so ive got a 6.1 surround system and a nice stereo system -that are kind of connected together.
ive got a pioneer surround amp that is processing the surround and also powers the rear center speaker.
a parasound halo power amp runs the other 5 speakers.
the sub (soon to be a 18" pro audio jbl) will have a 1200w plate power amp built in.

for 2 channel audio-
a squeezebox 3 coax out to a cambridge audio dac magic dac, this then gos into the parasound halo's balanced xlr inputs

i flick the switch on the back of the parasound between the dac magic and the processor to change sources obviously.

i want to buy a behringer DEQ2496 to do 2 things-

1 equalise the sub for a flat or 'house curve' responce when playing films.

2-i want to use it with the stereo to equalise the speakers and possibly actively crossover to the sub. i would like to use rew aswell but i dont know if it works with the deq 2496

what ya think??

The DEQ2496 will provide EQ for 2 channels only, it doesn't have any crossover function.

Room EQ Wizard will not program a DEQ

is the DEQ2496 appropriate for use with my sub to extend the low end then? i would like to run the sub with eq but also play with eq'ing the mains to see what i get-and i get the impression both the DEQ2496 and the bfd will do this- i will purchase the crossover at a later date.
