The short answer is No. The longer explained answer is plenty of people that have klipsch subs, and have never had anything better probably are happy. For the record I speak with plenty of experience, so I’m not just telling you what I’ve read …..They’re cheap, and expensive. A terrible combination obviously. Of course there are a few outliers. From my understanding the THX subs, although very expensive are pretty beefy, and the very first reference line back in the early 2000s had a couple of really nice subs (expensive but nice)… I have no experience with pro line subs, which from my understanding, are an entirely different animal altogether.

I have the RFlll, and I have found a great way to fix them is set a pair of JBL 590 beside them. That worked great for me, 590 for music and 7lll for movies and concerts. Just one owners opinion that has tried many dozens of pre's/amp's, modern and classic gear.
“The solution is new speakers” that’s pretty funny 😄

A definite pleasing and acceptable adjustment can be made by ear but........to go really deep down this rabbit hole you will need a UMIK(from the miniDSP folks) and REW running on a laptop or PC. Or some equivalent measuring system. Do the amps your going to use have gain controls?
Yep they both do.

Levels can be adjusted with the crossover but it is not automatic if that's what you mean.
Level matching the two drivers easier than I’m thinking, or is there a lot that goes into it? Seems like it could be a lot of work if it’s all done by ear (one being all bass and one being all the other).
-
I would be using two different amplifiers, how hard is it to level match the two drivers? Does the active xo do all of that?

Our old friend ChrisA always stated he thought the regular miniDSP 2x4 was noisy.
YMMV
Thanks, so you guys recommend spending the extra money? If it’s noticeably better for $100 more (that’s a no-brainer).

would this work just as good, or would I need the more expensive version? -
Or does the crossover go before the amp? Then that wouldn’t work….
-
This would be a separate one that would only do the bi amp, and nothing else.
-
How about using an AVR that can bi amp (in place of a four or five ch amp)?

@Heritage_Head What AVR did you buy? You can probably run the LS's directly off that, then add a MiniDSP and a cheap d-class amp for the 510's - just to try it out

So if I’m getting all this correctly I need a four channel amp (one channel for each 510/driver, and one each for the La scala bottoms)…I know next to nothing about active xos. What are the requirements?

Now just get it over with and buy a pair of Axi2050. (I like to spend other people's money too. 😁 )
Lol….wow those are 1k each 🥹!

Well I’ve taken the advice of the forum, and I bought a new AVR with pre outs 😊. So active it is!

You have a 904 lf and a 904 hf (510 horn, b&c de75/k 691 and bracket? Hmmm…..let me see.
I use to..I sold them when I sold my house. Now I have 1978 La Scala that im thinking of adding 510/de75 to . I have a line on buying 510/de75 drivers. I’m wondering what my options are in terms of a crossover that would work with them (passive if possible )…Thanks

Have had 3 sets of 510's; 2 with mumps and 2 old ones. Never could hear any difference
I’m guessing its way beyond my old ears.

...and that is where a good 2" full range driver and a pair of K-510s for a good price comes in to the mix
do the K-510s have the "mumps"?
I actually have a lot of experience with the 510 (The pic is my old set up). Those had mumps.
These are what I have now.

I stand corrected 😏.
