zuzu Posted March 14, 2007 Posted March 14, 2007 I would Love to hear from those who had this done, What did you notice? Quote
Speedball Posted March 14, 2007 Posted March 14, 2007 for me it tamed the horn and brought the midrange forward.......something along those lines, it's been too long ago. On my 4.2's it tightened up the bass which they needed that bigtime. Quote
MrDecibel Posted March 20, 2007 Posted March 20, 2007 I recently had them done and it definately tamed the highs. Get a few of your favorite cd's and listen to them frequently before you do the DeanG mod. You will notice a difference. Quote
sheltie dave Posted March 20, 2007 Posted March 20, 2007 ZuZu, where do you live? A listening session could give you the answers in short fashion. I got my set already modded, and I have been extremely pleased with their performance. Quote
el jopez Posted March 20, 2007 Posted March 20, 2007 I'm still waiting for the day I can have this done, but being on a limited "fun" budget has challenges. Maybe in five months time. Quote
zuzu Posted March 20, 2007 Author Posted March 20, 2007 I live in Butler Pa. I am going to have Dean do the crossovers very soon, right after I set up a Velodyne DD 12 in the system and listen a bit. Too many people have raved about it for me to not do it. It's $290 with free shipping back. Hell the parts cost $200. Quote
DeanG Crossovers Posted March 20, 2007 Posted March 20, 2007 (2) 5uF Kimber (2) 12uF Kimber (2) 18uF Jantzen (2) 16uF Solen (2) 1 ohm Mills (2) 2 ohm Mills (2) 10 ohm Mills Quote
zuzu Posted March 20, 2007 Author Posted March 20, 2007 Well I got The $ 290 right. Thanks for the correction. I was so happy to find out I didn't have to get the speakers to you but only the cross overs I guess I got some of it mixed up. Quote
Arky Posted March 20, 2007 Posted March 20, 2007 zuzu Not trying to be rude but search the archives. Many of us had it done 2 to 3 yrs ago & wrote extensive posts from step by step change out instructions to the pleasing change it made. Quote
PhilMays Posted March 20, 2007 Posted March 20, 2007 Just don't do what I did and take the crossover apart as well....you'll get a litlle email....[] I love the upgrade. It certainly smoothed out the speakers. Quote
Arky Posted March 20, 2007 Posted March 20, 2007 LOL! I guess that's one way to get an email out of him. Quote

dunglass Posted January 3, 2009 Posted January 3, 2009 DeanG kindly posted this parts list. Can anybody tell me please which model (quality level) of the Solen and Jantzen Caps is the right one? As far as I understand the Kimber Caps are only availiable in one quality. Some recommendations where to buy the parts, gentlemen? Thanks and kind regards Stefan, Berlin Quote
dunglass Posted January 10, 2009 Posted January 10, 2009 Can anybody tell me please which series of the Solen and Jantzen Caps should be used? The Jantzen Series are - Cross Cap - Z-Standard - Z-Superior - Z-Silver It seems to me that only the "cheap" Cross Cap is availiable in the requested 18 uF. Should it be that the Jantzen Cap must be much cheaper than the Kimbers? For the Solen Caps in 15 uF I only find a series called Metallized Polypropylene. Is this the correct one? Would jump happily cross wise in my flat for serious answers. Thanks Stefan Quote
