Using a dspNexus 2/8 with JBL M2 speakers
« on: 21 Dec 2024, 01:40 am »
Have a possible customer with JBL M2's that wants to replace his Crown gear with a dspNexus 2/8 and external amps. 

Have migrated the Audio Weaver 5.x version of the JBL M2 dspMusik 2/8 crossover to Audio Weaver 8.x version for the dspNexus 2/8.

Once he has the unit, will get the gain measurements for the existing amp channels to the drivers and modify the block diagram for his speakers.

Nice. I'll be following this. I have a friend with M2s and the Sub 18 I've discussed doing this with.  :D

The customer purchased the dspNexus 2/8 with the AK4499EX DAC's for his JBL M2's.  Will ship after the holiday's from Danville directly to him.

Once he receives the system, will start the setup process for amp gain and driver sensitivity adjustments.

Rich, details on how this installation went? Is the customer using the Nexus with the M2s or maybe now using the Crown arrangement, etc? Thanks.

Rusty Jefferson,
The M2 system has the dspNexus 2/8 and have not heard any recent update.  Last I heard he was still integrating it.

I sent him the M2 DSP I constructed from the crossover from the online paper. 

Will see if I get a recent update.

Thanks very much. I'm curious if he started with the Crown setup and moved to the Nexus or what he settled on, etc.  :D

There are a few ways of doing this

Thanks, I did follow that thread. I've heard the M2 with a Crown setup and a BSS setup. I have a friend who has the Nexus with the latest dac cards and processor, and it sounds brilliant in a difficult room. I think my buddy with M2s should try it. Am interested in others who have implemented it.
