 ... 3 meter interconnects to Quicksilver monoblocks (100kohm input impedance) paralleled with a DCX2496 crossover (20kohm input impedance)?

Would output transformers help?

 Digital Latency!!!!

What's the DCX being used for? You may very well have latency issues by splitting where you are. I'm not sure what it is with the DCX, but definitely worth some digging to make sure you're not giving yourself a time-domain disconnect.



Bass is supposed to sound big. 6.5" is not a woofer size.

 Yup, latency can be an issue. I use the DCX as a stereo sub crossover at around 50hz. I've measured the time delay and factored that into the delay I'd ordinarily put on subs.

 With the stock version, it should be no problem.
