"transient-perfect" crossover in 12/02 AudioXpress

[Nelson Pass]

It will amuse to know that I started out in the commercial
end of this business designing crossovers at ESS.

In the 30 years since, nothing has really changed; crossover
design is 10% measuring equipment, 30% good taste, and
60% perseverence.

I have known guys who couldn't put batteries in a flashlight,
but had really great DIY results because they knew what they
liked when they heard it and never stopped fooling around
until they got it.

On the other hand, most of the companies producing crappy
sounding speakers have a well equipped lab. In most of them,
the guy in the sales department has the last word.

Er, ah, I mean Nelson.

Marketing. That's the name of the game. Always makes up for lack of technical know-how. What else could explain most of what passes for "high-end" audio?
