Steve,

While I completely agree with you that the "best" clone is a matter of personal taste. I would have to question the validity of changing the crossover point of an existing
speaker design. Lower the crossover point and you risk damage, increase overlap of the crossover slopes and you incur increased phase distortion (especially in passive
crossovers). Most quality modern speakers are well designed to start with, especially the newer line of powered monitors. Other that voiding the warranty, exactly
what are you achieving? What is the new secret in crossover design that has eluded the industry all these years. Those cabinets you are using look like rebranded
cheap American Sound or similar. If I am wrong please correct me and clarify exactly what it is you are selling.

Thanks,

Gary

Hey Thomas

Sorry if it sounded like a riddle. What I meant was the TX5 is no more special then any other Clone on the market today. Most of all the Clones today are all very good. In my opinion none is the best in the world. One needs to pick a keyboard that fits your own personal needs. Price, how it feels to you & how good is the Sim to your ears. Which means the missing link to all of them is the audio chain. You can have a 10K Clone & play it thru a cheap system and all you have is a cheap sound. Simon this statement is for you. I have heard some of the best sounds in the world from a Casio. Thru a proper system. What I am trying to say to everyone is the solution is in our hands NOW....
