Balanced or single ended phono stage?
The Liberty B2B-1 can do both, for balanced you'd need two of them for a truly differential amplifier, IMO Vastly superior performance to running them Single ended, if the rest of your system is balanced.And yes I do make them, there reviews here ... 
"Biasing" a crossover- with batter power?
The voltage applied to the bias circuit should be larger than the input voltage to the crossover so 18V wold probably be a better choice, start with 9V for simplicity, if you hear an improvement with 18V then use 18V, for most normal listening lev... 
"Biasing" a crossover- with batter power?
For an example ; Your capacitors in your tweeter section of the crossover calls for a 4 uf capacitor followed by a 8 uf capacitor, between them theres a .3mH inductor to ground.You would replace the 4 uf Capacitor with two 8 uf capacitors wired in... 
Please help me change the look of my speakers
If you take them to a cabinet shop that have experience with speakers they should be able to re-finish them, however if done correctly it will not be cheap. Macassar Ebony is about the most expensive veneer you can buy, that combined with the roun...

JBL M2 speaker system ....
If you can get the DSP parameters from JBL they could easily be programmed into any DSP based electronic crossover and you could use your own amps. Best of luckPeter 
Remote volume control = unacceptable compromise?
There are volume controls that are remote controllable and that are sonically vastly superior to anything Alps makes, my opinion of course.A few examples are the DACT, although difficult to remote control but certainly doable as well as the excell... 
JBL M2 speaker system ....
DaveThe Digmoda amps are fully adjustable to what ever the M2 might need as far a crossover, parametric EQ, Phase adjustment, limiting etc, there is nothing the the active crossover supplied with the M2 that the Digmoda Amplifiers cannot do, and t... 
JBL M2 speaker system ....
Joe,You are right, they need a DSP based crossover and a stereo amp per speaker. Alternatively they could be powered by one of the Digmoda Amps which features ICE power modules and a Motorola DSP, that could be done for about $1500 per speaker.Goo...
