Hello Alan, Great topic here and actually one that i have pretty regularly.. please also feel free to contact me directly outside this forum and we can discuss this further. Somethings to keep in mind with this... yes many people have turned around and bypassed the crossover, changed drivers, and what-not and honestly once that is done, they are no longer "EAW" quality nor an "EAW" loudspeaker.
