Vandersteen Treo vs 3A Sig as upgrade

I'm very late, but a cheap meter is a phone with a calibrated mic ($25) and app. On android I use sound tools.  It's very nice, and has much better extension than most SPL meters.

Also works with Room EQ Wizard if you get fancy.

@mr_m  I have the M5-HP adjustable Vandy crossovers.  I have two 100k ohm X-2 in mint condition if that would happen to be the value you need .  I was just looking at your integrated online but could not find the input impedance listed.  You would want an X-2 that is roughly 1/2 the input impedance of the Rogue.

You can halve an impedance by putting a resistor in parallel with it. :)

So if you have 100k but need 50k, put a 100k resistor across the inputs.

But really, this should only be for passive line level crossovers. Any active crossover should deal well enough with anything over 10k.

Best,

Hifiman. If they were the right values for my amp, how much would you want for them?

@mr_m I bought them a number of years ago when I first got my subs. so I had no idea of what they cost.  I called Vandersteen today to find out that a new pair of X-2 crossovers is $140.  They are worthless at the moment stored in my stereo room closet (they are in the original sealable plastic bag with the owner's sheet).  I would be willing to part with them for $40 including shipping cost.  That might net me enough for a new SACD or 180 gram LP.  If they are not the right value for you I would honor that price to anyone in the continental U.S.
