The liberation of sound. How I got the best sound ever in my listening room.

Описание: The liberation of sound. How I got the best sound ever in my listening room.

Is your passive crossover limiting your system’s potential?

In this video, I explain why I removed the passive crossover from my system and replaced it with a purely analog line-level solution (PLLXO). This approach allows true bi-amping without DSP, without L-pads, and without large inductors in the signal path.

Wideband drivers offer purity and coherence. Dedicated bass modules offer scale and authority. The real challenge is integration — without choking dynamics or transparency.

This is how I solved it.

What you’ll discover:

• The Bi-Amp Interface – a passive line-level crossover built into a stabilized Y-cable
• Why analog sources (vinyl, high-end DACs) deserve an all-analog signal path
• How a 300B tube amplifier pairs with OKHO widebanders
• Why a solid-state or V12 amplifier can be ideal for BOB bass modules
• CLIO measurements proving the precision of a 1st-order roll-off
• What changed in real listening — articulation, scale, spatial clarity

“The speakers were no longer playing. They were breathing.”

If you’re exploring modular loudspeaker systems, bi-amping, or chasing the final 5% of performance, this deep dive is for you.
