Eminence X-OversPXB3:5k0 3-Way Board Crossovers

I ordered a pair of these to affect a rebuild I did on a pair of old ElectroVoice "Encore 77" 3 way large bookshelf type speakers. When I say large, I mean 12" woofer and 25 inches tall big. I replaced the woofer, midrange and crossover. The tweeters had been replaced long ago so those are still useful. This crossover is really well built. It's ROHS if anyone cares. The clips are 1/4" and can accept the slide on terminals or be soldered to directly. I chose to replace the crossover because the original OEM had too high of a crossover point to the midrange, 1200hz as opposed to 500hz that the Eminence has. That's a whole octave less the woofer has to worry about being accurate. The tweeter crossover is at 5khz and is typical for most 3 way systems. The power rating is 300 watts, way more than I'll ever pass through these speakers, but it's good to over engineer. Ultimately, it's about how they sound, and they sound great. I'm using them with a set of Pyramid PW1248USX 12" woofers, PYLE-PRO PDMR5 5'' High Performance Midrange Drivers and some ribbon tweeters I installed years ago. Used in conjunction with 2 SONY 12" powered subs, this setup comprises the front channels of my theater. Eminence is a great brand and they have chops in pro audio. I recommend this crossover.

I read on Talkbass about replacing the crossover on my original SWR Triad bass cabinet. The original crossover was purely for the tweeter, sending full signal to both the 15” and 10” cones. This made the mids and lows muddy. This new crossover isolates all three speakers, allowing each to work in a more appropriate range. The difference is significant. The low notes have greater clarity as the harmonics route to smaller cones. The mids have way more punch. No more mud anywhere. For my purpose, this crossover is perfect.

I order one of these to check It out In my hands. It came damaged one of the corners was broke. Did some checks and everything was fine. Sounded better than the garbage that came from factory. So I ordered up the second one, Installed In second box. Sounds great and will use In my build that Is the works. Quality parts that should satify most buyers with a moderate price point.

I installed two of these in an old pair of prototype speakers I designed many years ago when I worked for Philips - 15" woofers, 5" midrange and two types of tweeters (peizo and magnetic - with their own sub-circuits between them). The component quality is very good, and even though the price for this unit is a bit higher than some others I looked at, the quality is much better. I would venture to say that you probably couldn't buy the components individually for less - not even including the PC board. I found the sound quality very good - maybe a bit pronounced in the midrange, but that is probably just me being used to the sound from the old crossover design, which was designed back in the day when few people had yet to experience full range speaker systems. The old design was tailored to overcome the human ear's reduction of highs and lows at low volumes. Now, we have variable loudness controls and graphic equalizers. Bottom line - this is a great crossover for this type of application sizing.

Used this crossover for a very large speaker build consisting of a 15", 12", 2x6", and tweeter array. It is powered by a mono block Crown amp that is rated at 900W RMS. This crossover is quit clear and made with some decent parts. Though the bass is an iron core inductor, it's not bad. The mid and tweeter are air core inductors which is great. Overall would recommend.

Bought these for a project with JBL Le14, Le5, 2412 in an antique Acousticraft bass reflex cabinet. It sounds great with 500 and 5000 crossover points. Highly Recommend these over the L100 crossover I previously used. Wired the Le5 in phase- sounds more accurate than Le5 wired out of phase- but that sound is iconic

I used these to update the cross overs in my 40 year old Denmark. they sound better now than when I bought them !! great sound you can hear each speaker in the box again. best crossover I`ve found for the price!!!!!

Much happier with this vs. when I tried to go cheap with another crossover. This one is labeled better and is easier to wire up. In my opinion, it sounds much better too. I have no complaints.

If you are buying these crossovers you know what you're buying. They are absolutely top quality premium audio equipment. Recommend these to anyone serious about building a good quality speaker system
