UK event with Mathieu Pernot - 17 July

[Confused]

@Confused - there's a white paper here about the Active X-Over (crossover) design.  It looks to me as though it's what Devialet have already demonstrated with some of their big multi-driver set-ups.

As you surmised, the picture is a re-worked version of a previous photo of the CI.

Thanks!  To quote the white paper "AXD (Active X-over Design) combines the endless possibilities of Devialet Expert Pro DSP (Digital Signal Processor)".  I recall Mathieu Pernot explaining how this could be used to exactly match the characteristics of a speaker manufacturer's theoretically perfect cross over, something that cannot be done with electronics in a passive cross over.   OK - The possibilities might be "endless", but other than AXD, they have not really started yet.

This perhaps leads to another question for your list; Other than the existing Active X crossover, what else is planned for the Devialet Expert Pro DSP?

As I mentioned in a past post, I would like the internal DSP to include an "anti-clinical" feature, maybe adding a touch of harmonic distortion to "warm up" some of thin sounding recording that exist, particularly on earlier CD's.  You could have a variety DSP selections to suit every genre and every form of dodgy mastering.  I am not sure how Mathieu Pernot would react to that one though!  I love the idea of reviewers stating that an Expert Pro sounds very accurate, but maybe a little cold and clinical in comparison with some rivals, but when selecting the harmonic distortion DSP, it sounds warm, organic and extracts the emotion from the music, much better.
