Why dont you get the SpatialHD Minimac. I believe that's what the cs12.3s were designed for, and it is absolutely stae-of-the-art! I may be biases as I have both as well.

...Did you ever integrate subs with your CS2.3s? 
Tube Monoblocks for heavy music on Khorns
Atmasphere: What did you and Brian Cheney run at the CES? I thought he liked active systems, but he probably didn't use them at CES with you, did he???

It would be nice to do an A/B test with the same speakers in the same room: (A) with the passive crossovers and one amp. (B) without the passives but with actives, and at the same slope and frequencies. Also, each amp in the active circuit would b...

Atmasphere: I thought the passive high level crossover was one of the bigggest problems for tube amps. Wouldn't an active system alleviate THAT particular problem. I am sure it would create other problems, too??

Good point Tjnif. Sometimes I do not enjoy constant tweaking and would rather just hear music. I will check out the site. Thx 
Tube Monoblocks for heavy music on Khorns
Atmasphere, I have the ability to change the phase, frequency, slope, delay, HP, LP, band-pass, gain levels of all circuits with my Minimac. Also, while incorporating these crossovers I can take microphone measurements to see how the driver rolls ... 
Tube Monoblocks for heavy music on Khorns
Tjnif, if I ran the Khorns with active low level crossovers and obviously without passive high level crossovers I could simply turn the level down on the squaker, EQ out some offending frequencies or both. Also, I could time allign the drivers all...

Atmasphere, Do you think that it is better to have two nice "Big" monoblocks with passive high level crossovers, or small SE amps if you want, then having an active system without passive crossovers in ALL cases? I know there are alot of considera... 
Tube Monoblocks for heavy music on Khorns
Atmasphere: What if all the same amps (hence all the same characterists) are used in an active system? For example, a s-30 on the bass, a s-30 on the mids and a s-30 on the treble. If all these are crossed over at low-level therefore not requiring...

What about the hybrid (Tube, Tube, SS) running active with crossovers, slopes, delays and equalization done in one digital to analog conversion. This is done with my Apple Minimac and Apple Firewire compatible TC Electronic DAC Preamp?
