[QUOTE="olmie75, post: 2551843, member: 573325"] I have a pair of Infinity Kappa 693.5i speakers and I am missing the external passive crossover units. I called up Infinity and they don't carry these replacement parts anymore. Any ideas of how I can jerry-rig a decent crossover? (without having to dedicate a 4-channel amp w/ active crossovers to these speakers) There are 2 sets of speaker terminals; I checked them with a multimeter, and the resistance is 3.5 Ohms. I have a Kicker KX650.4 amp (2 channels to dedicate to these speakers) that is stable at 2 ohms. Therefore, I can't wire the two terminals as-is in parellel since it would reduce my resistance below 2 ohms. So in addition to crossing over the frequencies properly, I need to get a managable resistance from the speaker system. Please advise. [/QUOTE]
