Thanks for the info, but any digital based x-over won't work well in a home theater system unless I change all the x-overs (both passive and active) for the same type. It has to do with the delay times (the time required by the unit to first convert the analog signal to a digital bit stream and then for the processor to crunch this data into the required frequency bands, finally followed by the D to A conversions to make the signal analog again. All of this takes time that will screw up the phase relationship of the various speakers (front & rear centers, side, rears, side effects, etc). I have looked at a home built X-over linear phase design by Randy Slone that seems easy enough to build but like my old JBL unit its not adjustable.

There must be a decent analog x-over (with balanced I/O) out there that someone could recommend.
