FS: Marchand XM44-3 active crossover

Status
Not open for further replies.
For sale is a Marchand XM44 3-way active crossover bought new in 2010. Comes with some frequency modules (180hz hp, 180hz lp, 2700hz hp, 2700hz lp, 1000hz boost). New modules can obviously be purchased from Marchand or made yourself.

This Marchand has the balanced kit added, but the output xlr's have yet to be wired - but its a simple thing to do (as you can see in the photo, just screw it into the terminal blocks). Everything works fine, I've used both the rca inputs and balanced inputs, no issues. Will post this Australia wide if buyer pays for shipping. Or local pickup also available and is preferred.

Looking for $680 + shipping.

Will consider shipping overseas.

An externally hosted image should be here but it was not working when we last tested it.

Hi, I'm interested in this unit but I am in Europe. What would shipping be to Belgium?
Do you have a link to the setup of this unit, block schematic or circuit diagram? Marchand's site gives a lot of options but I didn't see this particular layout.
Can this unit be wired for 230V mains?

It has a 110/230V switch on the back, I'm running it on 240V without issue. This is just the 3 way XM44 layout, with both single ended (rca) and balanced (xlr) inputs and outputs. Its the same circuit diagram as any other XM44, and uses the same PCB as the 4way - the only thing they change is the number of channel strips that have components populated on the board.

Manual is here - http://www.marchandelec.com/ftp/xm44man.pdf . You can change the crossover points by simply changing resistor values on the frequency module cards that slide in (note, I actually have 8 of them, not just the 4 shown in the photo). Resistor values can be found using their calculate app here - http://www.marchandelec.com/ftp/calculator.exe . My modules are all 24db/oct but you can easily change it to 6db/oct or 12db/oct also, once you run the calculator app youll see what I mean.

I'll send you a PM once I found out the shipping price to Belgium.
