The G01 ALEV3 Harman booster only drives the two under-seat woofers and the ALEV3 RAM drives all the others. This is different to ALEV4 B&W which uses a more advanced Harman booster to drive more speakers and more channels i.e. each tweeter has a discreet channel from the booster rather than using a mid/high passive crossover on a single channel.
So how can you say that coding BW onto HK hardware is just equiliser? Isnt it obvios that when all the speakers are amplified via booster there is different level/cut freq/etc taking place? My HK booster overheated every day and turned off (no bass). After coding back to stock all the problems went away, no more cracking, no overheating...for a year now.
