It won't see a 50Hz signal, because the (passive) crossover in the speaker will filter it out. But I agree that the benefits of this are not obvious, at least so long as the amps are not clipping. > > Mostly, I think this is really a way to prove that you have too much > money. You might just have another amp lying around and want to try it. In my case I'm using a relatively inexpensive 12 channel distribution amp fed by an active crossover custom designed for these speakers. The amp plus crossover costs much less than many audiophile 2-channel amps. -- opaqueice ------------------------------------------------------------------------ opaqueice's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=4234 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=46354 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
