I do not understand why today's digital crossovers use analog in/out. Are there any digital crossovers that accept and produce output only in the digital domain? The only thing I can find are the things put out by miniDSP and those are for room correction (dirac live). Since all digital crossovers have analog in and analog out, then why even bother to have a dac. Just feed the dbx venu360 or the DEQX or the PAss Labs whatever your digital signal and out comes the parsed, corrected, crossed over signals ready for amplification.
I guess the thing that bothers me about this is that I spent money on a dac and now I want a crossover and I 'm wondering if that will change the character of the sound with all the A/D and D/A going on. That's why i thought it would be nice to take in a single digital signal, then room correct, cross over , timing fix, etc all in the digital domain and and put out a digital signal for the DAC to the mains and a D/A converted signal to the sub for the low end. I know this sounds like audiophile paranoia, but I 'd rather ask than reinvent the wheel.
