Please Suggest An Electronic Crossover


Speakers:  Infinity Kappa 9

Preamp:   Audio Research Reference 3

I’m looking to find an external crossover to add to my system.  Preferably a pre-owned unit…will consider new unit.

Would like to limit to $1k…but will go to 2k for the right unit.

And you've fixed how many? I figured.. ZERO.. Like I SAID I have two more fixes that are a lot less expensive, the rest of the XO is fine.

The other requires one cap one inductor and one resistor.

You can even use the old bass speaker terminals.. to look authentic.

My way is better.. plain and simple.. So There!!! :-)
PS:  Please don't just pick crappy crossover settings and try to fix everything with global EQ. 
   So many recommendations on this subject. Crossovers, room correction, sub integration, and all others play into the equation. For a relatively cheap way to experiment try something like an Outlaw ICBM. Not in production anymore (originally $250 MSRP) but can be found in the used market.
   To get really specific and get something you can order to your specific needs try this place, A bit more money but very good quality.....

As the OP i asking for recommendations , I feel free to make one without being accused of generating “spam.”
I have had excellent luck with a vacuum tube electronic crossover custom built for my system by  Marchand Electronics.  I biamped my Magnepans, completely eliminating the factory crossovers.  Results have very satisfying.
If you mean an active crossover, no I cannot recommend one. I have not heard a single one that sounded good. A couple I tried to upgrade with boutique components; I could improve them, but never to a satisfactionary level


They are good enough for pro audio, but they are not good enough for hifi. I’m sure a genuine hifi quality unit could be manufactured, but that wouldn’t be cheap.
