Hi, I'm new to this forum. I just recently installed some of my old equipment and I have some questions. I have an early 90's pair of MM6510 2-way component speakers, (I can't remember if they came with a 2-way crossover or not. but all I have is an in-line crossover between the woofer and tweeter that cuts the lows out of the tweets.) They are powered by a PPi Art Series A404 going through an AudioControl EQX equalizer/crossover. One question is, does anyone have , or know where I can find, the specs of this speaker? Also, I'm not sure if I should have it coming out of the EQX at full range or high range. here is a photoshopped diagram of what I have.
thanks-epi

Wow, I had a set of these. I might still have them in my basement. I also had the 6.5" coaxials (MM6520) and 5.25" coaxials (MM-IIIA, MM5520) . I really loved the sound of this series of speaker and used them in 3 of my cars transferring them from one to the next. I did eventually run into some problems with magnets shifting.
The 2-way component set was MM3065 and included the MM6510 woofer, MM3000 tweeter and an outboard crossover network. Yes, I am looking at the brochure.
