Before you guys start attacking me that crossover components makes no difference and demand statistical graphs and double blind studies to prove it, please read these links on a DIY parts site.

By no means am I saying I can design a cross over for the M80. The nature of the M80 with it's 3 way six driver design is one of the hardest to make a crossover for.

Solid-State

Nobody is saying that changing the crossover won't make a difference. If you use components with different values, or a different topology altogether, of course it will sound different.

Do you think that Axiom hasn't experimented with many different crossover designs themselves? Do you think they haven't put these different designs through a series of blind tests to determine which results in the most neutral and natural presentation of sound? Do you think they don't have their own electronics experts with many years of design under their belts?

Your posting of irrelevant links is not helping your case. Also, claiming that Axiom's staff designs and keeps the good crossovers for themselves while foisting substandard crap on us unwitting consumers is laughable.

"Nobody is saying that changing the crossover won't make a difference. If you use components with different values, or a different topology altogether, of course it will sound different." And I'm saying you can use the same component with the same value and hear the difference.

Did the Skiiing Ninja ever send his M22 crossover into Axiom? If so what were the results? Improvement?

Solid-State

PS You make out that I'm trying to say Axiom is keeping the good stuff for themselves and passing on crap to us is BS. This is your perception and is hardly the truth. If you understood what I'm trying to say you'd know that's a total insult. Again I'll rant my mantra

"within reason" and "law of diminishing returns.

He never sent them.

Really, Peter... this whole thing has become laughable....

Hubba, hubba! I surely do love solid state physiques.

*whispers hastily in Fred's ear*


aw crap, I posted in this thread...

You have just forfeited your popcorn rights.


Wait a minute....Dohhh!

sigh.....next class we will discuss how speakers "open up" during cable break-in. This thread has turned into a lot of nonsense.

I'm going to back this thread up to where it was claimed we don't understand how gravity works. Keep in mind I'm don't work for any University or Physics lab or anything like that, but I know how gravity works. Anything with any mass what-so-ever has it's own gravitational pull. That's because 'stuff' is made up of atoms. Atoms are electronically charged, therefore they are magnetically attracted to eachother. Therefore anything with enough mass will attract anything else with mass. It doesn't really become that obvious until you gain as much mass as a planet or a moon. The bigger the planet or moon, the more gravity it possesses. It's really not that hard to understand.

Ok, now we can all check that one off the list!
