Re: Nagging question about op amps in active crossovers

I have used Marchand and Erno Borbely active crossovers in the past. The digital domain electronic crossovers/speakers were supposed to take over the world a few years back. You can do a phenominal amount of accurate frequency shaping in a line level environment that you really can't do in the passive components of speakers. When all an amp has to do is drive the little voice coil you can get away with a lot. Look at the mess an amp has to drive with some of the 21 element crossover speakers out there and it starts to make sense.
