Is the sub out affected by the eq?

yes

Hmm, Might be an elegant solution for a set of comps with a substage since it has an lpl 44 connector ?

You might have a little more room to work with than I do though.

most of the cross-overs have lpl ability as well

Nutxo,

I have an old EQ215 and it is installed before the AX406A in the signal chain, so the entire signal is affected by the EQ. I then have a LPL44 hooked up to the AX406A to adjust only the sub. This is the setup I think you were describing. I think it works really well.

that is the exact same thing the ix does.......

Personally I recommend running the LPL to the amps rather than the EQ/XO. At the EQ, it lowers the output voltage of the RCA. At the amp, the RCA runs high voltage all the way to the amp, and the voltage is only cut internally. This way you get the best possible signal to noise ratio, especially when turned way down. You can still use an active crossover before the amp, you still have to set the amp as low pass, but with a very high crossover frequency (well above what your external XO is setting).

Mmats amps dotn have a bassknob. I guess I could just use a basscube .

In that case, definitely use the LPL on the EQ. Much better to cut signal than boost.
