    Hi Rob,
    Nice to see you - I hope all is well with you & yours.
    I've been admiring the minimalism that your avatar displays for quite some time now!

    Hello Chris!

    All is good thanks, starting to settle down now. I'll do a proper 'returned' post in Abstract Chat later on.

    That avatar is the album cover from my next release - however I started it in 2010 and I've still only completed three tracks with another waiting for copyright problems to be sorted. Not a priority at the mo!

    How's you matey?

    Yes, I'm fine thanks - all the better for not working today!
    My comment on the minimalism of your avatar was a bit of a joke as the image doesn't seem to be showing. I liked the one I was able to see!

    I was thinking of putting some of those into my speakers to adjust the woofer crossover. It would adjust the amount of forwardness to the sound. One Way for laid back and the other for edge of the seat.

    Oh, I see. It's showing for me. How odd!

    The proof....

    I think it's the simplest in terms of circuitry and it does add that tweakiness which audiophiles are always a bit fond of. I'll have a think, I'll probably end up on the L-Pad route though.

    Are you thinking of one of these for the attenuation?

    They look interesting.
    Bear in mind, these assume that your tweeters are actually 8 ohm. Most drivers are somewhat different.
