B&W Variable High Pass Alignment Filter Setting.


I have a pair of Matrix 801 Speakers and I recently got a B&W high pass filter. The filter is set to work with 804 but I don't have the user manual. I appreciate if anyone can share that information or show my any pointer. Thanks!

Thanks Ct0517, very interesting. I have a pair of 801 Matrix S3 speakers. I have had them for 5 or 6 years, but only just heard amount the filter. The doc I read said it was for all Matrix 800 type speakers but went on to say it benefited the series 1 and 2, but did not mention the series 3 at all. However it did say that later 800 series speakers were designed not to use the filter as it was ahead of its time and confused listeners.

I'm glad you had a positive experience with my series of speaker. This has made me decide to try and get one, or make one. It is only a butterworth filter, with a tuned rolloff for the 801.

The doc I red is below:

Thanks again.
