RE: Did you give up on subwoofers for Quad ESL-63s?

Kent:

I get pretty good results with a Dahlquist LP1 electronic crossover set about 60hz, running my 63's through the LP 1.

While I do hear a very slight difference between through the crossover and full range, I seem to have significantly more dynamic range using the crossover as it is intended.

Right now I am using a pair of homebuilt subs that sound pretty good to me, although they do not go much deeper than about 25hz, they add the warmth and spatial information that comes with deeper bass than the Quads will do.

As you probably know, the LP1 is passive (one cap) on top and active only on the bottom.

Do you think the LP1 might be good enough to run this way, or am I just fooling myself?

Thanks
