wow 53 looks and no one knows enough to post what the specs on their BM is...
I assume the higher end market units have an adjustable xover, ive seen them increment at 5 hz from 50 to 100 or something like that. The lower end ones like mine, have a fixed point which really sucks if you have a good sub cause IMO, you shouldnt hear where the sub is coming from.
My little pre/pro is set at 100 hz, which sucks and when my mains are set to small, it goes up to 120 hz which really sucks, but in my small apt, it really doesnt matter that much.

I guess the point of this post is to see what options in BM are desireable. if you got to design your own sub xover, what whould you want on it? phase control?, 30Hz boost?, 5hz incremental x over point from 30hz to 100 hz?, thats about all I can think of, anyone else??
