[QUOTE="ciaonzo, post: 8654170, member: 607015"] Not as a plug and play solution, no. As the original crossover components were selected for a target roll-off based on the original driver's in-cabinet impedance and frequency response profile, you should not expect the same results for a different driver with a different profile. Not to mention, because of the copper pole sleeve the impedance on these SBA drivers is almost ruler flat unlike many other drivers, including the original B&W driver. Things will be messed up in the crossover region unless you address the necessary change in crossover components. Definite yes on the second question. Why in the world did you go ghetto with PRV drivers for home hi-fi? For B&W speakers, no less. Just something you had laying around? [/QUOTE]
