    Now that I'm planning to do this for my first time on my next vacation next month. Should I just copy the existing crossover with better components, is there a formula that I should know about, or is this just trial and error?
    My equipment sig felt inadequate and deleted itself.

    Do you have the peerless tweeter or the sl2000? Most likely follow the schematic or use the same value parts on the current x-over, then evaluate and decide if you want to tweak the values furthur. I know it's a PITA to pull things and mess with it more than once but if you are going to experiment beyond the stock design values that's what it takes.

Why are we looking to reduce a subjective experience to objective criteria anyway? The subtleties of music and audio reproduction are for those who appreciate it.

    I have sl2000's. I may change them out, but I don't know for sure yet.

    I guess if I have to mess with it, so be it. Unfortunately for me, this hobby in a way is not a lot different from what I do for a living, and I really just want it to be magically done after playing with stuff at work all day.:rolleyes:

    I think, I'll just go ahead and match valuse and see how it goes. I see an order for Solen's and Mills in my near future.
