I also was able to hear the difference, but I am sure the "low
fidelity" of youtube made it more difficult. Is there a way to post mp3
files on the file section of this group?

Audiophiles would recommend biamping, something I am playing with. You
could adjust the frequency point where the signal is divided with an
inexpensive stereo active crossover. Then send the signals to two
stereo amps. Then perhaps you can adjust the volume and tone of the
highes separately from the lows.

I have read that the added benefit is the fact that an active crossover
does not rob any power from the signal, and you get more volume and
clarity from the same speakers. (A passive crossover uses part of the
signal to the speakers to function). You also get more volume because
the an active crossover is much more accurate and renders the sound
much more clearly close to the crossover point.

Right now I am using a biamped system. The biggest weakness is that my
mid range is now weak. I am considering triamping and adding mid range
speakers. I would also need another crossover that divides stereo
signals into three ranges. Why? Because its interesting and cheap. I am
learning. And I will have so many ways to adjust the color of the
music.
