Found a pair of crs+ blade/blade for sale in my area. I read in the SDA compendium where the blade/blade has a slightly different driver and passive radiator configuration. As far as TL'ing a pair of CRS+'s is it best to hold out for a pair of pin/blade's or can the blade/blade set be TL'd by upgrading some of the drivers?

    The B/B version has different crossovers that can't be TL'ed. I would wait if upgrades are that important to you. If you are going to leave them stock, either model will do, since both are an upgrade over the earlier dual tweeter models.

    If I buy a pair, I want to TL them. I have a pair of the dual tweeter versions I'm going to sell. Thanks for answering the question!
