Post Subject: Mess…Posted by Romy the Cat on: 9/12/2018
Ok, spent a half of the nigh to working with my IB problem
and discovered that everything that I do now is a complete mess.
First of all the crossover that I used is not what I though
it is.
I found my old there from which I learned that I modified my
crossover to fine-tune my former listening room.

So, I had 4th order on one side and 3rd on another side and
only God know how it sounded in combination. My desire to soften the filter is
still there but I have no idea where to go with it and how high can I run my IB
in compare to my woofer towers. The most complicated thing is that if I go with
2 order then I might go all the way with line-level passive filters. The
tossing away the active tube crossover has own problem: I am not sure I like
how my DC-coupled SS amp sound in bass. So, there are so many variables involved
I have difficulty to know where to go without being wasteful. I think the best
idea would be to bring a digital crossover in the game and to try to get good
sounding configuration from harmonics stand point. Then render the found filter
in analog passive mode and try to make all the things to sound right. I wonder
if somebody locally can lend me for a month some kind digital crossover to experiment.
I use to have one but got rid of it…
Another thing. Overnight I connected the Milq’s bass channels
to drive my IB. The Milq has no power and you do here the clipping at high
volume but the harmonics are spectacular and I wish I had 100W SET to drive my
