Are these crossovers still good? Just got em from Mylows10

Just got these in from mylows10, poped off the cover to the crossovers and saw that a component looks fryed. I believe its a resistor but it looks like a big pain to get the board out. Are these still ok to use?

there is pics, the component has basically fryed in half. I dont think it will take a reading. U mean check the component itself? Or the wire inputs on the crossover

thats exactly what i thought...... But why on both crossovers? U think mylows10 ran to much power to them? or....

I think u need to ask for your money back...

what is the text right below the burnt component.. and yea refund time

We traded. So is it worth it to replace the component or should i just try and get my amp back....

Its labeled C3

Im sure he will reply to me soon and take care of it. He has plenty of feedback, im not that worried

get ur amp back.

Well he sent my 2 Hertz midwoofers, DD t2 tweets, and the crossovers. So the crossovers cant be fixed?

 

[benchambers80]

just replace that cap, any other visible damage?

 

[JoshC 10+ year member]

No the rest of the component look fully functional and intact. The crossovers themselves arnt even really that beat up, i dont smell anything. Usually when something frys it will always stink

So that was a cap not a resistor? How do i know which ohm/pF component to buy

The midwoofers are in good shape, and the tweets are lnib

This isn't just as simple as throwing another component in there. Different kinds of caps will have different effects on the sound...

 

[benchambers80]

well if you knew the type and size of cap you could replace

and yes usually "Cx" x being 1, 2 ,3 usually signifies capacitor
