AX406a vs MX3i
Posted: Sun Aug 31, 2008 9:38 am
Well, I'm thinking about trying out an active setup. I guess I just want to tinker around a bit again, which I haven't done in a while 
I have an AX204a right now to cross my sub and comps and I like it. I like the idea of RNETs a lot but I'm thinking that using an RNET-based xover for tinkering around on an active setup is going to be more pain than fun... which is why I'm considering an MX3i. Keep in mind, I want a more or less "matching" setup to my M amps and white accessories from the same era so I'm somewhat limited in my options. Even an MX3i has different silk screening but I can live with that
So, functionally the MX3i will be much faster, much simpler tuning than the 406a for which I'll need to build a ton of RNETs for. But will I be frustrated with the precision of MX3i? Who's used them and liked them? Anyone used one and not liked it?
Any input would be great.
To add a quick note, I will be looking to buy one or the other sometime soonish so if you got one you want to sell, sell me on it!
