I have found that affordable active crossovers impose too much of a
sonic signature on the sound and now use a passive line level high pass
filter(Marchand XM46) with an active parametric low pass bass management
device(ONIX RDES).

Interesting discussion. What do members here think please, regarding
stereo (not home-theater) use, and using a separate active crossover
unit? I.e. actively crossing over highs to monitors, and lows to sub(s)
through a separate device placed between source and amp/subs...(?)

So true. WARNING! GROSS GENERALISATION ALERT! Most audiophiles look
askance at subwoofers. The feeling is that breakin
I rather think it's the later, if you haven't experimented with sub's in
a high end system, you might not appreciate what they can do. I
mentioned earlier, that I like what a satalite/subwoofer system can do.
In my living room right now, I've got a pair of B&W 705's with a 750
sub. To my ears,
I use a HSU 12" ported sub from some years back when they were round! I
love it! The round cabinet is much tighter than a square one. It doesn't
vibrate at all.
The thing I like the most is that I can put it behind my listening
position and not have to run a long interconnect. The amp was separa
thx for your responses guys. Based on the general lack of response I
have to conclude that most think its a daft idea or don't feel equipped
to comment.
