The Model 10B features independently selectable crossover points for high-pass and low-pass, in case the speaker installation requires slightly overlapped (or slightly staggered) response curves for the drivers. You can also independently select crossover slope from 6, 12, or 18dB/octave, where one driver requires faster cutoff than another in the same system. A fixed-frequency plug in Linkwitz-Riley alignment with steep roll-off curves of 24dB/octave is also available.
The crossover may be used in any of three internal connections: 2-way stereo, 3-way mono and a special configuration, 2-way stereo with summed low-pass out to allow the use of one sub-woofer. The 10B is available in two stock versions, a 10B sub incorporating frequencies more suitable to sub-woofer applications and a JOB standard which is more applicable to speakers requiring frequency control in the mid band and tweeter areas.
All crossover selections are extremely accurate and repeatable, being implemented with 1% selected metal-film resistors and polystyrene capacitors. All switches are heavily gold-plated for lifetime protection from corrosion. The level controls are precise 1dB increments, also derived from gold-plated switches and 1% metal-film resistors. Most important, however, is that the Bryston 10B crossover uses NO integrated circuits in the signal path. All internal buffer and amplification stages are Bryston's exceedingly linear and superbly quiet discrete op-amp circuitry. This means the signal is always maintained as "Audiophile Quality," with stability and freedom from noise and distortion unmatched in other crossovers.
From the point of view of adaptability, flexibility and signal integrity, the Bryston 10B Electronic Crossover is the ideal choice for the widest range of multi-way speaker installations.

Let's take a look at the construction features of the dbx 223. At first glance, you'll notice the units are great looking. As you turn the controls something else becomes apparent; these units are extremely well built. The controls exude great precision, and the feel is a solid "click". Also, when you open the box, you won't find the external power supply that accompanies most processors in this price range. That's because we know how difficult external power supplies can be to work with and even though it costs a little more we put the high quality power supply right in the unit. All the inputs and outputs are TRS differentially balanced 1/4" jacks that are bolted down to the chassis. This "nutting down" of the jacks insures that even if someone stomps on a cable plugged into the unit, it's not going to tear up the circuit board inside. All dbx crossovers all feature Linkwitz-Riley 24dB per octave filters, the professional standard. But then again, what did you expect?
Via a switch on the back panel, you first select whether you're operating your system in stereo 2-way or mono 3-way. Then you also set, on the back panel, whether or not you want to mono sum the LF (subwoofer) out. (Most systems that use a subwoofer are mono subbed to take advantage of amplifier power and because low frequencies are non-directional.) Back panel switches allow you to select the range of the crossover frequencies individually for both channels. The crossover frequency controls have a green LED that indicates when the x10 switch on the back panel is activated (we wouldn't make you check the switch position on the back every time you wonder where it's set). All these switches are on the back panel because it could be disastrous if you were to change them mid-program. On the front panel you'll notice there are LEDs that indicate whether the unit is in mono or stereo mode. Each channel has an input gain control for proper level setting. There's a recessed 40 Hz low cut (HPF) on each channel to remove unwanted low frequencies. Both the low and high outputs on each channel have a gain control ranging from - to +6 dB to allow muting of individual outputs and for level matching. Also, these outputs each have phase reverse switches that will help get you out of a bind without having to reconfigure your system. These phase reverse switches may be internally reconfigured as mute switches.
You'll get great performance, all the features you'd expect from a professional product and the knowledge that you're buying a processor from the people that have been producing the worlds finest processors for over 20 years. The technology that made us famous brings you a dbx crossover that has been tested to the highest professional standards at a price that's just too low to admit
