DSP vs. active analog crossover vs. passive analog crossover. What is your take?

@kingharold

I don’t have exactly the same problems like you since my horn is dual concentric from 22k down to 400 Herts (it might even go down to 200 H since most likely I would let the dual 12" low midrange speakers go full range). However, I’m interested to learn more about DSD and if nothing else I can use it as a tool. Do you mind telling me which DSD processor are you using? Thank you.

P.S. Are you really a king? Just kidding.....

I use both an external xover and DSP.  DSP to tame bass that no xover can fix. The xover is to integrate sub better and let me use for movies too.  That being said DSP happens in Roon using focus fidelity software and convolution filter in roon.  Xover is the JL Audio CR-1.  They sound great together.  Of course Roon DSP won’t help vinyl people 

 but if I had learn anything from the past, there is no substitute for large drivers. 

I agree 100%!

I've heard some of these systems but to expensive for me. I have a simple 3 way passive  fairly large Bookshelf but I don't for a minute think it can compare with what these companies are now doing. DSP crossovers, fully active, complete integrated systems, this is the future.
