Hi,
On the PBN's. I thought clipping was the correct term but it was a clicking sound coming from what I thought were the woofers on the PBNs. I don't want to run the test CD again for fear of permanent damage. That was the lowest frequency on the test CD and all the other frequencies were ok. I don't think that the PBN crossover for the associated woofers have a shunt for frequencies lower than it can handle.
Please correct me if I'm wrong about the term clipping. I make an effort to correct my ignorance. It could possibly be that my Bryston crossover isn't functioning properly. I don't have the test equipment to check it out. Having it tested and repaired if needed would have been my next step. I was thinking about just going with a passive crossover to separate the subwoofers from the PBNs. The Marchand Electronics passive crossovers only have a left and right channel in and a left and right channel out. That would serve to eliminate lower frequencies to the Krell amp. So I'm wondering why Marchand's passive crossover only has a single pair in and single out and why their hybrid schematic needs a passive and active crossover. Thanks for your reply.
