Thanks, I wasn't aware of the Spatial software, but when I looked into it I saw that Emerald Physics was also offering DSP crossovers as options for their speakers.

I also didn't know about the Avantgarde Zero 1.
And you were right about Linkwitz. His newest speaker, the LXMini, uses a MiniDSP for its crossover.

And BTW, Linn has 3 models in the Exakt line.

Here is an explanation of the differences between IIR and FIR filters:

Without getting into all the advantages and disadvantages for audio crossovers and equalizers, FIR filters are generally preferred except at lower frequencies where the filter length limits the Q. So IIR filters are preferred for notching out room modes in the bass, and may be better for a crossover to a sub.
