I am interested to find out more information about how DEQX will help solve my issues with getting better soundstage, imaging and depth with the Edgarhorn Titans. I read some reviews from the DEQX website and sent them an email but still waiting...

I tried a highly modded DEQX on my horns for some time, we did all the time alignment with it, we used 1st order and 4th order xovers and everything in between, we used LeCleach adjustment for bass and all the other drivers we had it sounding for som...

My most humble apologies to DEQX and its users, what we tested was the Behringer DCX unit, my mistake.I never used a DEQX and have no current opinion on its performance....

Greetings,
I may be able to answer some questions regarding crossovers, multi-amping, etc. - without getting bogged down, hopefully, in metaphysical issues.

[quote user="slack key"]I know that speaker position and room acoustics are important. I use a laser to align the speakers, room treatments, hallographs, crystals, ionizer, Z-sleeves, bybee filters, etc. I also have power conditioners, installed de...

Let's see "series crossovers"... hmmm, very interesting. Something to look into? Where can I get more information? Should I contact an audio tech to design one? Can I send the current crossovers somewhere for evaluation or do I also have send the...

[quote user="Kerry Brown"]My system is 4-way using 2x DEQX HDP-4 processors; 2xNuForce mono amps on the midrange horns and 6 x channels of a 7-channel NuForce HT amp that uses the same circuit. The DEQX processors function as crossovers, speaker 'cor...

It is wonderful how these forums work and how it's members provide the feedback and comments from their experiences and expertise.I am 90% convinced that the DEQX will not provide the magic spatial sound that I am looking for with the Edgarhorns....

Lost in Space? More like Spaced out.Taking Tramadol and Soma for a cervical problem. I listened to Art of the Portuguese Fado Guitar and everything was 3D.Kidding aside, I did some reading yesterday. Some online articles on the DEQX makes me want ...

[quote user="Bud"]You need to find an individual who can design series crossovers. Both JBL and Altec used these, because they sounded best. You will need to look for an individual near where you live because they will have to test the drivers as...

We have tested live recordings against live sound, a recording of a jazz singer was done on Reel tape on an Ampex ATR modded machine with Fluxmagnetics heads etc. The microphone used was the legendary Telefunken stereo tube mic. no post producti...

[quote user="Kerry Brown"] Jorge, You're quite welcome to visit any time you are in the SF Bay Area. .... The little aluminum box on the upper shelf with the blue LED is a NuFrorce mono amp, one of two. The DEQX HDP3, one of two, is the black bo...

[quote user="Kerry Brown"] A digital crossover with lower bit depth and sampling rate than the recordings it's processing won't deliver maximum sound quality; unfortunately my DEQX crossover is limited to 24/96 so it can't process hi-res digital ...

Hi Paul,The Cogent diaphragm I have seen pictures of was woven carbon fiber with a leather outer surround. I have never listened to a Cogent 1428 but they must sound very good, at least Bill Woods and Bruce Edgar say so.Besides their overall ultra cl...

Jorge,
You're right about using identical amps. No doubt.
I have not used Dr. Edgar's passive network but I have tried conventional passive networks on Edgarhorns. They worked alright.
And I have...
