With bryston it has on model t and electronic crossover and you can tri amp it.many big speakers let you tri amp.sublime acoustics h electronic crossover has a gain know that let's you match the volumn of each amp.dbx ,mini dsp,and old yamaha have electronic crossovers you can program. Mcintosh xrt 2k tri amp.i have tekton ulfbrich I tri amp.my infinity rs 1 b are tri amped as well as irs v.my vmps rm 40 is triamped. It allows you to run 1 or 2 kw amps to the base and less to mids and even less to the tweets then you dsp sound levels and make the graph flat.there is even a simple cell phone app that measures the frequencies. And make sure no peaks or trough.electronic crossover dsp and triamp is the next level up in audio.madisound and parts express have all the stuff for you to build.enjoy the hunt. Klipsch just put electronic crossover on some of thier speakers.you have to wounder why more manufactures are doing this electronic crossover..my legacy valor has a electronic 3 way crossover the wavelet.
Does anyone own a tri amped system in Florida I could hear?
That is my query. I have an audiophile friend in Australia who swears by this approach, and I am wondering just how many levels up one can go in SQ as well as full extension tone in doing this. I am a very happy balanced analog EQer for tone but want to experience everything.
Thanks! Sorry I don’t have my system posted still but I’ll put it in the next box here.

My system is tri-amped and I wouldn't have it any other way. It is a worthy pursuit. I use four Pass Labs amps, 2 X260.8 mono-bloc amps for the woofers, and one each XA30.8 for the mids and the tweets. The amps never get out of class A no matter how loud I make it or how high a peak demand may be. I believe the biggest advantage is that the mids/tweets have no idea what the woofers are doing. Yes the run a little hot, about 107 F. An ARC Ref6 goes into a custom Marchand electronic x-over and out to the amps. Marchand has you pick the slopes and x-over points. They can be changed by ordering small pc board plug-in modules. The front panel has level control for bass/mids/highs for each channel. Very handy. Fun to fiddle with for a while, then I've found what I like and "usually" don't touch it anymore. The source is all digital and the speakers are Hartley Reference (no longer available). I haven't been everywhere but I have not heard anything better. Its out there but I have ceased to look for it. This is my end-game system. Regards, barts |

Awesome guys. Lots to chew on here. Thanks! @barts , what state you live in? Assuming once we communicated more you’d give a brethren audiophile a listen. I also intend to call that North Miami store. |
