Hey guys,
I just built a tiny Modified Linkwitz Crossfeed.
It works great as a crossfeed, I hear the channel blending when the switch is ON, don't hear it when it's OFF, still not sure if I can tell the difference between High and Low settings, but that's fine.
On to my little problem though, I wired it internally with SPC and have a built-in output plug, also SPC. When I tried it with my Pimeta, I noticed ALL THE BASS IS GONE! Aaah! That's a very scary thought considering I was using bassy AD843's opamps and DT770 80Ohm! Without the crossfeed the combination is very nice, great bass when I'm playing racing games, can really hear the roar of the engines and it sounds great with hiphop / dance music. I put on some 2Pac and I can barely hear any bass at all, which totally threw me off.
The full config is this:
Audigy2 ZS (ASIO) -> Magami StarQuad (copper) Mini-Mini -> Crossfeed (SPC) -> Pimeta with Cardas internal wiring.
Do you guys have any idea why the bass was suddenly sucked out with this crossfeed (I'm thinking it's because of mixing SPC wiring/built-in interconnect with a copper interconnects)? Is it normal to notice less bass when using a crossfeed?
