martin8708 Posted July 4, 2021 Share Posted July 4, 2021 (edited) I recently purchased a McKenzie 150watt bass speaker locally , the chap who sold it to me had fell out of a tractor , injured his back and was in very poor health , so he was just trying to off load his stuff. I agreed to buy the speaker , and he asked if I was interested in some crossovers . I don’t know much about crossovers , but he started just giving me stuff , I think he just wanted all his music related stuff out of the house as he could no longer play ( keyboards ) There is one eminence crossover , the other 3 way one does not come up on google , so I have no idea about it .There are 3 pod type things and a small transformer .I suppose I just want to see if I can re-coup some of my money spent on the driver .Any help appreciated , many thanks in advance .

itu Posted July 4, 2021 Share Posted July 4, 2021 (edited) The first picture: a three way X-over. 2nd: relays. 3rd: a woofer X-over (LPF, or rather a hi-cut) 4th & 5th: a power transformer. edit: Sorry, my small phone missed the 3rd picture.

Bill Fitzmaurice Posted July 4, 2021 Share Posted July 4, 2021 Crossovers are optimized (or should be) for use with specific drivers in specific enclosures. You might find someone in need of the PXB250, the other is a pig in a poke. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
martin8708 Posted July 4, 2021 Author Share Posted July 4, 2021 Many thanks for the replies , the 3 way cross over is quite a weighty beast , but apart from the serial numbers there is no other identifying features or labels . Many thanks to itu , I did not know they were relays . Seems the best item is the eminence cross over , any idea which speakers it would be best suited to , I have a few dotted around the house .I have a soft spot for old vintage drivers . I suppose eBay will decide their market value , any sale will be a profit . Thanks Martin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill Fitzmaurice Posted July 4, 2021 Share Posted July 4, 2021 The PXB250 is a 250Hz low pass filter, which you'd be hard pressed to find a use for. That probably explains why he had it kicking about. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
