DCS Scarlati v Esoteric P-01,D-01
I know this is an old thread but I just had my P-01 / D-01s / G-0Rb upgraded to VU status, it was now or never since the Grandioso series was introduced. Wow am I glad I did it. I have been into high end sound and in the high end sound business fo... 
Anybody have an actively multi-amplified system?
Rodman, I too, would love to try the Accuphase DF-55. It's infinitely flexible, so other than perhaps software updates from time to time, it would be a set-and-forget unit, and likely you'd never sell it, nor be able to easily. And, unfortunately,...

Sorry Mustang, for the 3 threads. This website isn't particularily sophisticated, and I didn't know at the time I'd started 3 of them. More than happy to carry on where others have, and let the other 2 die.

Csontos, I'm not encouraging you to go with anything in particular. The Behringer can be modded pretty easily, with much better op-amps, power supply, etc. to make it WAY better than it ships out of the factory. I'm sorry, I don't know much about ... 
B&W 802 N vs. D
Sorry for all the duplicates, I'm just getting to know how this all works. And I was a bit harsh. From what I remember, we had a Levinson 433 on the front/center (theater system, obviously) and 2 432s driving the sides and rears. Not that I liked ...

Csontos, I'd go with the DCX2496es personally, but it's your call. I've heard them, and they're not terrible, the soundstage is just somewhat flat and boring, and somewhat trebly. It's just the nature of the beast, being built in China with small ...

Your reaction, Zd, is somewhat understandable, since almost all active systems ARE in the pro world. They need efficiency and volume...maximum SPL per watt. They use Crown and Crest amplifiers, which sound like hell. Pro audio anything means relia... 
Anybody have an actively multi-amplified system?
Yes Dfhaleycko...the crossovers eat a TON of power up, and they soften everything...caps by their very nature smear sound by storing energy, then releasing it. No wonder your Maggies are so much more dynamic. Getting the crossover points is crucia...

Ya sorry it's my first one so it got duplicated from going backward and forwards with the browser. Sorry all. 
Anybody have an actively multi-amplified system?
Hi John!Great to see a reply so soon after posting. Yes it is more complex, and costly, so it's not for everyone. But not really...if for example (and I know this isn't a good one) people are buying $100,000 speakers to be driven by a $50,000 mons... 
B&W 802 N vs. D
Ok guys...I've sold B&W for more than a decade, the N's and the D's, and everything in between. Yes, the biggest difference IS the tweeter. And yes the D tweeter is night and day over the N version; the resonance is up near 80kHz as opposed to...
