But...the systems sound SO good! I believe the excellence of performance comes not from the quality of x-over parts but in spite of that--that the excellence is from the synergy that RV has achieved with the design and implementation. Therefore I'm not doing anything to them for a while.
Maybe after determining the nature of the x-over's secret rectangles, I'll build outboard x-overs from scratch using 5-star parts, but maybe not, too. I can see me spending $3K on parts--priced any 5-star-quality 9- or 25uF caps lately?--where RV spent about $50. :-)
New spikes and outrigger-spikebars are on the way.
