New Active Crossover... Bryston 10B, JL audio CR1, Pass Labs XVR1 or First Watt B5?


Okay, so this is a lot of crossovers... Does anyone have experience with any or all of these crossovers? I am looking for the unit with the most transparent high pass out of all of the above:

Bryston 10B
JL audio CR1
Pass Labs XVR1
First Watt B5

This will be for separating my mains from sub in a my 2 channel system.

I have the 10B-STD. My system is very transparent and I didn't notice any degradation in sound after installing. If there was any it was far outweighed by the improvements that came from properly crossing over my subs.

Having the flexibility to set cut over frequency, level, and slope independently for each channel is is a nice feature. this helped in my case because one sub is in the corner and the other is not.
There is a 10-B for sale on usaudiomart right now. Manufactured in 2012 so plenty of warranty left. $1100.
