    Z-680 Crossover Adjustments (hardware)

    True -- the surround drivers could leave somewhat of a gap if I changed the crossover to begin with.

    Z-680 Crossover Adjustments (hardware)

    Thanks guys. I completely agree on the control pod part. I guess I'll wait a bit and maybe just rehaul my whole set up and maybe go to custom speakers and a normal receiver, instead of putting too much time into this set.

    Z-680 Crossover Adjustments (hardware)

    I'll be done with this semester in a few weeks. I think I'll take a shot at it and see if I can figure it out. I have all the tools at home and on campus to reverse engineer it. I guess if I get it to work I'll get back here with a write-up in case anyone wants to do the same (if it works).

    Z-680 Crossover Adjustments (hardware)

    Just wondering... Why was it impossible to replace? I assume it's just a passive crossover like an RLC circuit?

    Z-680 Crossover Adjustments (hardware)

    Right but if I'm replacing the "headunit" of the z680 set I might as well sell the full set and replace the whole deal with a decent receiver a separate sub and build some surround bookshelf speakers myself. Just wish I could fix this up so I could at least use the subwoofer a little, I have...

    Z-680 Crossover Adjustments (hardware)

    I was wondering if anyone know how to modify it? I tried googling it, but I couldn't find any schematics or info about it. I assume it's in the plate amp? The only thing I've found is people incorrectly assuming there's no hardware crossover and messing with the software which really...

    L2335 or 2405FPW

    I can get the L2335 from HP - 23" S-IPS panel or the 2405FPW from Dell. The problem is that yes the L2335 is S-IPS so it has a lower delay (ms) and somewhat better color reproduction, but it's 1" smaller and costs about 100 - 200 dollars more. While the 2405fpw definately costs less and is a...

    High speed memory, which one is better?

    The corsair OCed the least amount. Geil middle. OCZ OCed the furthest... All of them are cert for my board... I guess I'll go with the OCZ since it OCs the furthest and looks the best with the copper finish.
