Where to position my external crossovers ?

[VantheMan]

Tried it with my own system yesterday. Bit of a lash up with joined cables for the last few feet.
Much the same again. At first not surprising but after say an hour you realise that the noise floor has disappeared. Silences are silent, black silent. So everything sounds cleaner and more dynamic hence the element of surprise and apparent extra volume for the same setting. Glyn John´s production of Joan Armatrading´s eponymous album has many more guitar and keyboard hooks than I had ever heard since buying it , How long ago ? 30 years ????! Hi-hats and cymbals splashes seem to go on for ever. It´s how I imagine a really top-grade Zyger tip on a mineral cantilever would improve on my Expert paratrace jobbed Troika. Somehow those longer bi-wired cables from Xovers to boxes have lost a significant degree of hash or maybe the short 35cms cables between amp and crossovers. Who knows ? Who cares ? Deffo one to try if you already have external crossovers.
