Direct to the point: I am trying to improve the sound of my Lsi9, but don't want to spend $300 on a new modded XO, as it's approaching Lsim703. If you've a set of used modded XO for sale, let me know.

    Mr nhhiep

    The LSIM 703 goes for around $1,500. Adding $300 to upgrade the LSI 9s is not anywhere, remotely close to the 703s in sound, quality, performance, and price. I am trying to understand your logic here. By the way, I have a tendency to believe that used XO's should cost more, because the labor involved to break them in. I am just saying..

    Along your same logic.. If you paid $1,000 for your LSI 9s many years ago and do the upgrade then I could see your point. So, here is what I have for you. Re-sell your LSI 9s for $950, buy my modded LSI 9s for $450. The side panels are modded with solid maple.There, you only spent couple hundred dollars + $300 in modded XOs. You are now living the high life. Congrats!!

    I laughed too.

    It is an xo...not ox. Xo stands for crossover. Don't ask me for more info...that's as far as I can get you. :cheesygrin:
