Bought the type-Rs from this guy. They are NOT new. Nevermind that, they are missing the crossovers to make them work. The are model SPR-694A, which have the "in-line 12 dB/octave high-pass crossover with tweeter protection".

I was wondering what options do I have to make this work? The speakers have 4 terminals. 2 for the tweeters and 2 for the woofer.

Hopefully you gurus can point me in the right direction. Thank you...

edit: oh yeah and he is in winnipeg and not ontario. left messages on his cell and PM him for a week now with no reply.

 

That's what you get for buying from somebody who has like 10 posts and no trader rating.

Buyer beware.

Now that that's out of the way, I think you didn't get scammed at all. The "crossover" is just a simple resistor I believe with that model. They don't have a "standalone" crossover.

 

ah well.... i did a COD transaction. Didn't expect it to go bad either, but i guess I was wrong...

I got this picture from ebay. The xovers are those black boxes between the speakers...



Any idea how I can replicate them then if they're just resistors?

 

I live near Winnipeg. Give me a name and a number and I'll CoD his left index finger to ya for a bit of cash.

 

Lol he is in ontario by his profile in the post of the sale thread

edit didnt see his edit about location duh

 

Says he's in Winnipeg... and your profile says you are too... maybe go pay him a visit and ask him nicely?

 

We met at burger king. I didn't take down his car plate. Was a Caddy STS circa 2002 model.

Only lead I have is his cell no. which is obviously not working. Or he is just rejecting my call everytime. *shrugs*

I would like to get more info on him creamedweasel, but nah violence is not called for.

 

Now im not to familiar with alpine speakers,but why not just go to a alpine dealer and see if they would sell these cross-overs seprate or better yet get a cap and use a sound proscoer and turn them what you want.

I know its not far,but you really should of checked the box

 

hmmm i did check the box. i didn't know there were xovers for them. the rest of the items looked ok to me... no one can point me to how to build an xover or something? please??

 

Google it. Will be the same as with home theatre crossover setups, of which google has plenty. I'm far too lazy to link though.
