When I had a pair of Amazing (Original's) I found them very good all the way to just above 20hz in my room. I ran them with an electronic xover and they played very well with just 200watts. They were very forward (and fun, truly amazing) which I cant stand so they did not last long here

If those had the BG RD75 line tweeters, these will sound different. The subs put out a wall of bass energy that sounds very natural. The BG Neo10's are my favorite sounding midrange ever and that includes all other types I have heard in 40+ years of listening.

Maybe not anyone else's cup of tea, but they are mine. And truly that is all that counts.

The 16 channel DSP crossover prototype will be here tomorrow and will start connection and testing on Monday. Already completed the new crossover design and it was running on the hardware before it left the company.

Now to see what this can do! :shock:

We have liftoff!

The 16 channel DSP crossover arrived yesterday with its designer, Al Clark from Danville Signal for trials with The Megaliths speakers.

Next step is measurements to design the updated crossover and then for room correction.

:D

Do you have a block diagram of you system showing how the dsp crossover is configured. For example how many channels per speaker. Is the system 2.0, 2.1, 5.1, or what?

Yes, will post it later, but it is 7 channels per speaker for the stereo pair of speakers.

Not like anything else folks have encountered for conventional room speakers.

Have the 16 channel DSP crossover connected and getting it ready for measurements and crossover redesign.

Found an EQ curve I like in my room, so will be adding that to the crossover design.

The 16 channel DSP crossover with the first revision The Megaliths design is up and running! Need to make more measurements and try the room correction with Foobar2000 with the new crossover.

This is getting better all the time! :)
