I discovered that the Behringer and DBX XOs I currently have are 2 way, but I need 3 way. The 2 ways only control hf volume (and polarity)
Speakers are Maggie 3.5Rs biamped. My big issue is the highs are too hot.
Anybody have experience using eithr of the 3 ways with maggie ribbons?

Hey bonehead....
Read your original bozo post
You post lacks information
What is your question?
If you want to control a system actively 3way stereo then simply go
out and buy a 3way stereo xover or use the xovers you have MONO 3way
and one active xover per channel
Both the DBX and the Behringer are 2way stereo or 3way mono
The problem with both is that neither is a true 2 way stereo, or 3 way mono. Both offer adjustable XO and volume for the mids, but both only provide volume control of the high frequencies. Buyer beware.
Now DBX does have a 234XL which is supposed to be a true 3 way, and Behringer offers the DCX 2496, but both are considerably more expensive.
Well having steep slopes is the key so you have no phase issues
Linkwitz Riley @24db per octave slopes should be minimum
Since you are running pro equipment why not have better control and slope
choices and better bandwidth overlap control and use a DBX driverack?
You have 31band eq/parametric eq/slope choices/bandwidth choices/compression/limiter etc
You can run pink noise and use a measurment mic and really dial those maggies in
There is better driveracks then the pa model but they will cost you
much more money
I have a DBX driverack pa, and I use RANE active xovers on my pro sound gear
Why use an active xover with loudspeakers that have internal passive xovers?
Your really screwing up the sound of those speakers using an active xover
Simply bypass the active xover and run your amp outputs straight into
the loudspeakers and let the passive xover do the job
Had you ever replaced the inferior passive OXs with active you would never make such a comment. Typical of someone with no experience
Have you tried posting your question on the planar speaker asylum? The people there are very knowledgeable about Maggies.
