Hi all, new member here to educate myself, I want to upgrade the crossovers of my current R820F tower speakers.
Current system is literally brand new, I went budget.
Marantz 5015 AVR used primarily as a 5.1.2 processor and to drive the surrounds, an Emotiva A3 3X140 amp to run the front stage consisting of Klipsch R820F towers and R-34C center. R51M for surrounds and R-41SA for heights with Polk SW10 sub. Like I said budget.
First thing I plan to do is to no-rez the cabinets and upgrade to tube connectors on the 820's which should focus what is an unfocus bass response, as that box resonates, a lot, but what I noticed was, as soon as I threw more power at them from the Emotiva amp the bass began to tighten up a little and the mids and top end became much cleaner. I know even just upgrading the parts on the xovers will help a lot, but my ultimate goal is to do what GR did to the Klipsch 8000 which was re-engineering the xovers to make it basically (in his words) a 2.5 way speaker from the 2 way it is now.
