Danville Signal will be doing an AB demo of a pair of Magnepan 1.7i planar speakers with both passive and DSP crossovers. 

The speaker will be setup with a single amp driving the passive crossover and tri-amped with the DSP crossover with a switch box to choose between the crossovers with the same source.  All amps will be identical.  They will be driving the Magnepan 1.7i's full range with the system.

The system will be at AXPONA 2024 in room 356.  Please stop by to hear the Magnepan 1.7i crossover comparison.

This video came up this morning and I really enjoyed it.

I've heard about Gary and his products for quite some time. Danny discusses a complete "off the grid" battery powered system that Gary designed.

For some reason, Bob Crump's name came to mind and my recollection is that he was innovative as well and designed some great products.
