CS350-LS Center channel speaker to pair with SDAs
Comments

Hello again folks.
Finally got a chance to pick up the CS350 center channel project again. I was able to locate a CS350 on CL, and here are some photos of the crossover.
Looks like I have the old sandcast resistor?
Is there enough info in these photos to determine if there would be much benefit to the crossover upgrade?
Thanks again!!!

I have both with and without the resistor, the one without sounds a little better. So you might try and jump the resistor and see if you like it that way.Yamaha RXA1030, Yamaha CD-S2100, Yamaha AS-2200, Bluesound node 2i

+1 if you find that the CS isnt what you are looking for try the LSiM 704 or 706.____________________________________________________________

Remove the resistor and install a jumper. Install a 5.8uf Sonicap in place or the purple electrolytic. Easy upgradeHome Theater/2 Channel:

How do they compare?
Does the tweeter in the LSiM centers sound like the tweeter in the Legend line?afterburnt wrote: »They didn't speak a word of English, they were from South Carolina.

The tweeter's are similar, yes. I would guess that CS400 or the CS350i would be better matches for your mains, I know that @EndersShadow among several others use oneof those with SDAs...Living Room 2.2: Usher BE-718 "tiny dancers"; Dual DIY Dayton audio RSS210HF-4 Subs with Dayton SPA-250 amps; Arcam SA30; Musical Fidelity A308; Sony UBP-x1000es
