Active line level crossover with subwoofer out - HELP

PS - I do like the Mytek products, but for the most part I’m not fanatical about them.  They have class-leading specs AND sound really good but over the last 10-15 years a lot of great sounding DACs have hit the market.

The only DAC I’m really against are the standalone Oppo lines. I made one or two bad comments about them on Audiogon about them, and the company went under. ;-)

Now I am become Death, the destroyer of worlds.

Fear me, mortals!!!

Also, no matter the route you go ruler flat rarely sounds best - especially in the analog domain.

my favorite analog EQ is the one Roger Modjeski designed for Beveridge .... sweet sounding.. I think Music Reference might still have one or three...

And finally cut is your friend, boost can really ripple... on a well thought out analog EQ cut is 2x boost....

Also, no matter the route you go ruler flat rarely sounds best - especially in the analog domain.

Indeed, you, Fred Toole and I agree on this. Fixing gross abnormalities in the bass region is often all you should do.

Whatever route you go with EQ : DSP or analog - get you best signal to background noise possible - run EQ in the hyper low noise wee hours of the morning.
very few audiophiles understand the baseline s/n of the room they listen in. Use the slow weighting on your SPL meter...

for many this may also lead to the realization that noise management may be a much much bigger sonic improvement than an expensive power conditioning gadget... of course, some of us do both....
