Re: 1.6 passive line xo works!

Listen for the hum/buzz with everything disconnected from your amplifiers inputs. If it goes away then you've most likely got some kind of wiring problem with your line level crossover. If the hum is still there then you're hearing low frequency noise from your power amp that was there all the time. (You don't have a series capacitor between the amp and your QR panel now to attenuate it.)

WORDS OF CAUTION: Don't turn on/off your preamp or fiddle with any connections while the power amps are on. Give it a minute or so to make absolutely sure the power supply capacitors are discharged. Also keep in mind that any turn on/off transients from the power amps are now being felt directly by the QR panels. This is assuming your amps don't have some kind of mute during turn on/off. BE CAREFUL.

Regards

Davey.
