Hi Wayne,

Curious about the flanking sub and distributed sub recommended crossover points.

You're suggesting that 100 hz is good for the flanking subs and 50 as the cutoff for the distributed subs. Didn't you recommend higher crossover points a few years ago? It seemed like 120 hz or so for the flanking units and somewhere around 80 for the others.

Mostly curious as there's an existing plate amp in the house that will crossover at 100 hz with a 2nd order slope. Easiest thing to do (in theory) is find another used one for stereo and call it a day. But it's crossover only goes to 100 hz.

There are inexpensive pro amps like the Crown xls 1502 that can crossover well above 100hz but it has a 24 db slope. What's your preference these days?

Many thanks,
Barry
