I called them “Darth Vader 904s” 😊

I actually have a lot of experience with the 510 (The pic is my old set up). Those had mumps.

No there older

Personally I don’t think I will ever stop tinkering no matter how happy I am with the set up…. It’s my favorite part of the hobby.

Billy, that’s hilarious! But to late “ That ship has sailed“ everyone currently posting in this thread (including you old friend ) rooms are already filled with giant speakers 😏😊.

Might just be easier if I post my credit card number. 😂😂😂

As much as I would love to get into the Jubilee level (yes please!). That was never really what my expectation was here. A nice upgrade over what I currently have. If that’s possible (with my budget and space).

Budget all done 1kish…I can get a pair of 510s with DE75s from a member on here for $400. That leaves about 600 for the rest.

If only I had the space, and the money… Some day maybe 🤞

In seriousness you guys have been super helpful, and I know you’ve given me the answer already. I’m not ignoring that. Im trying to find a cheaper alternative (if there even is one).

Lol…. Just looking for suggestions (not a cure for cancer) 😊.

Roy do you have any advice on a passive crossover solution?

Thanks for the link!

You are correct that zone two is technically a pre-out (for like a tape out), but wouldn’t that be a full signal and not just left and right front in a 5.1 (for example)?

I am unfortunately not advanced enough to understand the complexity of all of that if I’m being honest. I understand Ohm and xo pretty good. Does it mean basically that if you don’t have the right driver it will absorb too much power and be too loud if it’s not the right resistance? (Is that what you mean)

Totally agree sir…. I recently purchased a pioneer elite VSX-LX305 receiver… pretty spendy and I’m still not sure if I’m going to keep it. Its awesome, and really wanted to try out the new Dirac live. It has no pre-outs, and for $1400 you would think it would but it doesn’t. I may still return it, and buy something else with pre outs.. I run almost a full heritage system so needing extra amplifiers isn’t really required.

Is there any chance that when running Dirac live (or other room correction programs).. some of these issues may be fixed? Or is that just wishful thinking?

I’m not opposed to active. Its just the cost, and the extra modifications that I would have to do. It would require pre outs (that I don’t have currently)……external extra amplification. I have an offer to buy 510s with DE 75s drivers for $400..if I could get something that would make this work all spent 1k ish I will do it (so about $600 extra after I buy the horns and drivers for everything else).

What about another pro line speaker crossover? Like the 904 but one that xo lower (closer to 400)?

I always thought that speakers (i’m talking full speaker not just a driver) impedance was kind of measured based on the bass section more than anything else?

Please feel free to correct me on this, but isn’t the woofer the biggest issue when it comes to resistance?

Would you suggest leaving the tweeter (k77) hooked up as well then?

Absolutely (title changed)…. thank you

If anyone on here has tried this please chime in and tell me what happened.

I’m sure others will chime in, and tell me I'm crazy 😜 lol…. it might be interesting to just try and run the regular crossover I have now (take the two connectors that connect the K 55, and the K 77…. Then just run both of them right into the 510 (stand way back 🙄) and see what happens?
