Can you please suggest the model sirThere's an all analogue DBX as well iirc.

I would actually need a 4 way. So will start with one Dbx 234 Xs on one speaker. If it doesn't add any degradation, then will get a second one to complete the second speaker as well.There is also a 2 way version

yes, I've been eyeing the 223xs - I only want/need an ~80Hz crossover for monitors/sub - wondering if it might be a good option over the Behringer. There's a fairly +ve review on ASR (https://www.******************.com/forum/index.php?threads/dbx-223xs-crossover-review.35902/) showing about 101dB SNR, which is some way from the Sublime box. Two points of concern are "high" baseline noise and distortion rising with frequency above 2kHz. There are several pages of fairly positive follow-up experience. Almost enough to encourage the experiment, but really needs some comparative work.There's an all analogue DBX as well iirc.
Are you specifically after an analogue unit? Just asking as there are miniDSP options with better SNR if that's something you're specifically looking at.yes, I've been eyeing the 223xs - I only want/need an ~80Hz crossover for monitors/sub - wondering if it might be a good option over the Behringer.

I quite like the idea of the analogue solution in the spirit of the OP, but I'm not wedded to it. The main reason for mentioning SNR in my post is that the OP had drawn attention to that as a factor that they felt contributed to the superior performance of the Sublime over the Behringer. The analogue solutions under discussion are also quite "cost-effective" (aka cheap), but the price to pay seems to be SNR and distortion. There are much less cost-effective analogue solutions (iCon, Spl) which go way the other side of minidsp on cost, plus any number of obscure devices (I found a 20+ year old Wilson fixed frequency crossover (50Hz) on eBay recently - the seller had no idea about the spec so I had to go back to the company who dug out a photocopy of some documentation - and Accuphase frequency dividers, also with plug-in fixed frequency cards!).Are you specifically after an analogue unit?

Hi, is it a similar kind of sheen as the DCX, which is pretty sheeny?In the last couple of weeks I've noticed that tell tale sheen on a few piano albums with the behringer which I initially missed when first listening to the cx3400.
I tracked down the issue to some settings in Audirvana.Hi, is it a similar kind of sheen as the DCX, which is pretty sheeny?
thanks, that's good to have confirmed, if not exactly unexpected. Pity about the hassle of dealing with them, especially when you have do to returns as you have. For something that appears to be that simple, it's surprising reliability should be an issue.I've owned the DBX 223XS, the sublime is significantly better.
<Googles>Just under £3k I see . Crossover frequency limited to the 50 - 120 Hz range going by the knobs too. Don't think it would work in my room but I do like the red brushed metal front as a different option.I accidentally came upon a SPL crossover. Bloody expensive for a 2 way crossover .
But looks well built and beautiful. I bet it sounds great too, as its built for professional studio usage.
Since you need just a 2 way crossover, I think it will be a perfect fit for your needs @Psilonaught.
SPL? I think you mean SNR...I doubt the SPL is much better and way too expensive.
Lol yes typoSPL? I think you mean SNR...
