    FS: Audiocontrol 6XS 4-Way Active Crossover

    I am selling the 6XS that I am no longer using in my sound system. It is clean and 100% functional. This thing is super nice, and a large improvement over the built-in crossovers in most multi-channel amps.

    Included in sale:
    1 x 6XS crossover unit, fully tested and functional
    3 x RCA cables (~3ft length)

    The price is $100 shipped in the US lower 48 states. Payment via PayPal only.


    Product info & user manual:
    For unbeatable sound that hits hard and stays clean, even at extreme volumes, nothing comes close to AudioControl mobile car audio equipment.


    Understand how to use it before buying. You change the crossover frequencies by changing some internal resistors (there are DIP sockets under the cover). This is more work than turning a knob, but you get VASTLY better crossover performance because multi-gang potentiometers are never well matched. Pages 6, 10 & 11 go over the resistor groups and how you choose a value.

    As it is configured now, the crossover frequencies are:
    Subwoofer Out - 24Hz HP (protection), 119Hz LP
    Front Lowpass Out - 119Hz HP, 3038Hz LP
    Front Highpass Out - 3038Hz HP
    Rear Highpass Out - 119Hz HP

    If you want to change them, the easiest option is a resistor array. This link has a list of (currently) in stock 8-resistor arrays which should work well. Basically, XO frequency = 7200 / (Resistor value in kOhms). If you want to get really crazy, you can buy a bunch of tight tolerance axial resistors and match them with a multimeter, and I am including 5 x 16-DIP sockets that you can use for this.

    It also has a jumper for selecting the grounding arrangement, which I found super handy. You can choose between ground-to-ground, fully isolated and 200 Ohm ground-tie. This is a nice little feature if you find ground loop issues in your install.
