2-way XM126 shown

The XM126 Electronic Crossover Network is a fourth- order constant-voltage crossover design that provides both low-pass and high-pass outputs. The slope of each output is 24 dB/octave and, because of the fourth-order design, the high-pass and low-pass outputs of the crossover are always in phase with each other.
The XM126 uses 12AX7 tubes. It has a solid state regulated power supply for the filament voltage. Power is provided with a heavy duty toroidal power transformer.
The crossover frequency of XM126 Electronic Crossover Network can easily be set by replacing a frequency module. Each frequency module has the capacitors and resistors that set the crossover frequency and slope for that channel. Normal slope is 24 dB/oct, 4th order, constant voltage (Linkwitz-Riley), but modules for first, second and third order slopes are also available.
The XM126 is available as a 2-way version, a 3-way version and a 4-way version.
The XM126 front panel has calibrated level controls (for left and right ) for each channel. A sum switch allows the low pass channel to be summed. This is useful when using the XM126 with a common subwoofer.
The XM126 has both balanced inputs and standard inputs. A switch on the rear panel selects between the inputs.
Available options include 24 position stepped attenuators instead of the standard 12 position attenuators for level control. Thes 24-step attenuators are calibrated in 0.5 dB steps and allow very accurate setting of the levels for each output.
Balanced outputs are also available as an option.
