dbx 223xl flaking after 12 years, what crossover to get next?

Question at bottom.



Channel 1 on my 223xl dropped the lows, like engaging its Butterworth low cut. But it did it all on it's own and the low cut switch operates normally. When I pushed on the faceplate on ch1 side, the lows came back, until I let off. So odd.



Can a JBL 4206 crossover frequency of 2.6 kHz be changed to a Crossover Frequency of 2.8 kHz

Hi, I'm interested in buying some JBL speakers but the seller has said that the crossovers have been changed from the original JLB 4206 ones to JBL 4208 crossovers. He said that the speakers sound fine.

I have a set of Grund Audio dual 15" with horn and internal crossover that I want to re-wire to biamp with my external crossover. Can I just run new wires from the speakers straight to jacks or do I need any signal modification? Also should I wire the 15's parallel or series? The whole system will be run stereo 3way with a separate set of 18" cabs.

An electrical device that divides the audio spectrum of a particular source into smaller groups of frequencies, making it easier for down stream components to handle the load. The most common use of crossovers is in amplifier/speaker systems, which allows the separate components to function more efficiently.
