focal chorus 836v crossovers

[bezdikjack]

Hi everyone,

I'm searching for a pair of crossovers for my chorus 836v's
i have contacted Focal but they said that they are discontinued and don't have any spares.
can anyone advise where i can find a pair or at least replace them with some other aftermarket crossovers?

Thanks

I woul find someone else with a pair, and see if you can pegboard and ziptie/glue up a copy with parts like the rest of us do. Drivers need a custom xover, and an off the shelf unit will not be optimal.

This should have been my 1st question though, why is it you need one?

tweeters and midrange weren't working, i replaced them with new ones and they still didn't work.
I removed the xovers and unfortunately most of the components on them are either overheated and some even melted.
I've had the speakers for years and they sounded great but i guess over cranking the amps did that to them.
the amps i use are Emotiva UPA-1's

You could fix what you have but use higher spec'ed components ?

I was wary of getting involved in this since you have made it such a homework problem, Too little useful information...

My research seems to say this is a three-way speaker with triple basses in some wiring arrangement. Probably 8 ohm drivers, measuring 6 ohms DC.

Probably 6" drivers on midbasses.

Not far from this:

These sort of things can be simmed with similar drivers:

Rhythmic – Boxsim Projektdatenbank

Software | Visaton

I would be fixing the crossover, but off-the-shelf equivalents can be modified:

HW 3/130 NG - 8 Ohm | Visaton

If you have the xovers, just order replacement parts for them and be good to go. Just don't crank on them so hard.
