This set-up is essentially taking the workings of a Tap-X one box solution and splitting it up into 3 pieces to give you flexibility.I wasn't paying attention when I originally pasted in the wording of the previous ad from the manual for the standard resistor topology unit. This is a custom slagle former version, not the resistor-based version. From my seller's ad when I purchased them about a year ago: "Very rare custom Slagleformer (AVCs) installed in TAP "can" modules. Includes control module w display, left and right passive AVCs with dual "outs", one hard wired, one unbalanced. These have ICs to allow up to a 14' spread for those wanting them out on the floor. These are one of a handful assembled in this manner. John Chapman doesn't sell parts to DIY anymore, so a rare opportunity to own the best. ** These are the true "autoformers".... Not the lesser resistive types offered back in the day. Own the world's BEST passive, hands down." http://www.bentaudio.com/products/tap-modules.html I used my own cables from the RCA connections instead of the short jumpers attached. I set the modules on each side of the rack. Plenty of flexibility on how you want to lay out the pieces. http://www.bentaudio.com/DLFILES/MICROTAP-R1.pdf
Reviews on the one box version - same slagle-formers as used in this version:
