In Reply to: B & K Ref 20 vs Ref 30 posted by letting1 on March 15, 2001 at 14:38:28:
The Ref 30 uses a new Motorola chip that also does ES, and 7.1 processing for Home Theater. The 30 is THX certified and has several new features that aren't in the Ref 10, or 20 (I own the 10). The standard D/A chips are upgraded from the 20 to the 30. The Ref 20 tended to be a bit bright. The new D/A in the 30 mellows this out a little. The biggest feature of the 30 (in my opinion) is the variable crossover frequency. When setting your main speakers to small you can vary the frequency. I HATE the standard THX setting (70 Hz I beleive). In the 30 this can be adjusted. I have also heard that there is a notch filter in the 30. I think that with this you could manually filter out a frequency that may "peak" in your room. I see this a room tuning feature. They have also added a 5.1 channel input.That is all that I can come up with. Maybe a dealer can tell us more. Personally I am looking foreward to upgrading my Ref10 to the Ref30.
The Ref 10 has been a great unit (I've had it since August of 98). I don't think that you can go wrong with B&K equipment.
Good Luck
