In this video review that we like to share with you, Mad from the Youtube channel Mad Audio guides you through the integration of a subwoofer into your hifi system, choosing the SPL Crossover as his weapon of choice.
Why? Well lets find out:
“I was looking for an audiophile crossover – pure analog. A crossover that doesn’t take your analog signal and digitalize it.”
“The pure analog crossover is coming in a small beautiful metalic chassis, available in three differnet colors.”
“On the front panel we can find the two sections for the front speakers MID-HI and LOW for the subwoofer, which is possible to run in Mono or Stereo. Also a Crossover On/Off, if you wish to run the front speaker at full range.”
“In the center we have the low level volume. The output can be varied from -10dB to 10dB. At the right we have a Low Cut filter for frequencies under 20 Hz.”
“And finally we get two beautiful configurable VU meters to monitor the input levels.”
“The rear panel connections are pretty easy. Output sources like CD player, preamp, or network streamer can be connected via RCA or XLR cables on the input section.”
Sound:
“It didn’t only improve the linear stage, it also improved the sound stage, the experience, the transients – it just improved every single point about the low frequencies in my room.”
Conclusion:
“Finally an analog crossover again!“
“Superb perormance, easy to use and a pure analog circuit.”
The video also features an introduction to crossovers and measurements of the SPL Crossover.
