RE: Crossover upgrade

In my system I have external crossovers for each driver-woofer, midrange, and tweeter. I run mapleshade wire from each driver to the external crossover. This way I can change capacitors, coils, and resistors to my hearts content. If you get a good outline of the b@w crossover, consider putting the crossover external to the speakers. Good capacitors are vital as well as matching each sides total capacitance is important for correct imaging. You might look at Humble homemade hi fi for his speaker cap comparisons. Your drivers and enclosure are very good, spend some time on the crossover. Good luck.
