I think my byline might end up, "I have a friend". But, I have a friend who owns Legacy Valors. Several models of Legacy come with a device called The Wavelet. The Wavelet is quite a fascinating and complex piece. You'll have to look it up for all the details but it's a DSP, DAC and crossover. It takes samples of the room those samples are sent to a central computer I believe in Switzerland.
This same friend also has six JL Audio subs. He got the idea what if my subs had their own Wavelet? The JL actually have their own internal DSP. This setup is really complex. It sounded good but it was a real juggling act. I'm not sure exactly how this all went down, the bottom-line Bill from Legacy brought another Wavelet to my friend's house and set all of that up. So now the JL subs have their own Wavelet. The subs are better integrated and have better time alignment.
The result is excellent, a resounding success. The system has never sounded better.
So, the speakers are a pair of Valors, 6 JL subs and two Wavelets. He uses and needs the electronic crossovers but bypasses the DAC section. To my knowledge he may be the first to use two Wavelets.
