Has been flawless since purchased
This unit has been working fine since being purchased. I have nothing bad to say about it. It replaced a Peavey unit that had been an issue since I bought it

excellent, easy, bought a second one for a friend that was having problems with a peavey x-over. solved

Nice machine for the money but useless as CD horn compensation
Very nice crossover, easy to use, well built, but the CD horn function produced masses of grainy distortion. They could take a lesson from Samson whose CD function is much more subtle.

Excellent Sound, Features, Price. Lost one star due to long-term reliability.
This is my second one of these. The first one I bought several years ago, and it failed despite being used only a couple of times per year. The sound quality of this crossover is excellent. It is better than some high-end brand crossovers I've owned that cost several times what this one did. I have a critical ear, and a lot of very high-end PA equipment. It was important that my crossover not degrade the sound of a lot of elite, expensive amps, speakers, and mixing console. And, I needed three-way stereo capability with continuously variable crossover frequencies, preferably in 1 rack unit. This fits the bill extremely well and has a lot of great extras- the multiband limiter, independent phase invert switches and mute switches for each band, adjustable LF delay, and a switch to optionally sum the LF outputs to mono. However, my first one didn't last as long as a piece of this nature should, IMO. I started having problems with certain outputs (LF, Mid, High Lefts and Rights) intermittently cutting out. Cranking the input levels to the Xover would cause them to suddenly pop back in. The symptoms were almost exactly like that of bad output protection relays in a power amp, but there are no relays here. Additionally, the right channel HF output would have a big dip in the frequency response of mid-highs (well above the crossover frequency). I disassembled the unit, and noticed that there are ribbon cables from the front PCB to the rear PCB. The attachment at the front PCB uses a very poor quality (IMO) mechanism to attach the cable to the PCB, where prongs penetrate the insulation of each conductor on the ribbon. I believe my problem was that over time, this very tiny connection degraded. I tried removing all the ribbons and cleaning each contact with de-oxit, and also injecting some de-oxit into the mute switches. My problems significantly improved after this, but I still had the left Mid-Frequency cutting out once in a while. I couldn't have that happen at a gig, so I just ordered a new one. It is normal for an item with a lot of strain placed upon it (like a power amplifier) and/or with a lot of shorter-life components (like electrolytic capacitors) to require service after a handful of years. But a piece of gear like this should last longer. Much of the stuff in my rack (including some other Behringer gear) have been going strong for 17+ years. This one failed due to lousy design in terms of the ribbon cables IMO. But, the sound and value are so great I'd still recommend it. As far as Behringer gear goes, this is the only one I've had where I had any qualms about build quality. Their compressors are excellent for the price range (I have an original Composer, a Composer Pro, and a Composer Pro-XL). I think their analog signal processors are great. I have a DSP-8000 digital EQ/RTA which is good but the D/A converters aren't great. I've owned the feedback destroyers and thought they were decent as well. I hated their Mackie-clone mixers because I thought they sounded like dirt, just like the Mackie. Moral of the story is, some of Behringer's gear is really quite good, some of it isn't. You have to make your purchase decision based on the reputation of the particular model, not the brand name when it comes to the B-word.

Performance of Cx3400
I bought the CX3400 to experiment with active two way systems. While it would do what I wanted I was not sure how it would sound. As many users mod such systems I thought it might not sound very good. I must say that the stock unit is very good. I had intended implementing the final settings ( cross over freq / levels ) in a separate dedicated pcb with better opamps etc. However as it sounds quite nice as it is, I will delay this process for quite some time ......if I ever do get round to doing it ! I'm happy I decided to buy it. Great product.

Does exactly what it needs to do
I purchased this unit because I needed a crossover with flexible options. This crossover has many options for multiple system setups. Plus it has built-in limiters, nothing fancy but nice touch. This crossover will be used with my powered speaker system and a small subwoofer. I didn't feel I needed to spend hundreds on a crossover. This gets the job done.
