I'm thinking I could add a passive filter on the output of the amp. I believe that the speaker are about 6 ohms. If I use a 300-400 uf cap this should give me a 6db/octave highpass at about 75-100 Hz. Am I on the right track here?
We (obviously haven't gotten a non-DSP X5 into the store to do the same analysis that we did on the DSp X5.

ANy Portland area X5 owners that would like to volunteer for this analysis, contact me at x5world at avincar dot com.

As far as your xover goes, I don't think that will give you enough attenuation, and I think ryou'll need a steeper filter - but the coil across the terminals will probably feak out the OEM amp.

Just replace the darned thing...
