schroeder, your post was needlessly contentious and without value, and "let consensus dictate what you like to hear" a non sequitur.
I wanted a fully balanced passive filter because it goes between an Ayre KX-5/20 preamp and VX-5/20 amp, but that filter has fixed parameters. I was second guessing myself about whether I should have specified a 50 rather than 80 HZ crossover or perhaps continued the low-pass-only configuration. Further listening to a wide range of material since my original post suggests the filter is working well.
I "like to hear" baroque and jazz, and the occasional large orchestration. The source tends to be Roon via ethernet to a QX-5/20 digital hub.
