Anyone using a Marchand crossover???


Can you let me know what application you are using it in? I was thinking of getting a Bryston xover (recommended by member) then someone told me about Marchand. Anyone have experience with it????

Thanks

Rick: The active crossover in my JL-1s which splits the bass and treble signals is a Marchand product. About to be upgraded and tweaked by that "someone" you refer to. :^) Uses high quality parts, although not a cost-no-object design (although I believe Marchand has more esoteric products available than the boards in my crossovers). Marchand is a well-known name in the active crossover area.
I'm using a Marchand XM9-3 Deluxe and have no complaints about it. Like anything else, it is built to a price point and can be upgraded as one feels the need. It does have some nice features ( such as the "blend" circuit ) that other crossovers lack, making it slightly more versatile and easier to get things dialed in with. Sean

I use an xm9-2 Deluxe with Martin Logan and Genesis sub. It can be upgraded to a balanced output. I am considering it. Otherwise I have no complaints. I dpn't know if the Bryston is better. One person that I conversed with on line says that the marchand tube unit is the best out there.

Afriend of mine in the LA area swears by Marchand's for his JBL obsession.
I have owned the XM9 and now own the XM44-3. These are high quality products, nicely built with no problems. Phil Marchand answers the phone when you call for info so it's a real 'hands-on' business. Buy with confidence.
