so after ~3.5 years i believe the crossovers on my polks have died. i already checked the amp both checking in side the amp and testing it out of the car. now i do have a spair set of crossovers that are the same but from another set that i got on sale, aka my back set when i had the jeep.

now the question is should i just buy a new set of speakers all together or just replace the x-overs?

I would say if you can find the correct x-overs for the right price, go that route. However, you might be better off buying new speakers. I guess basically it all comes down to what it almost always comes down to, $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$. If you do go with new, let me know, I might be able to get you a really good price on some brand new. I can get Infinity, Alpine, Kicker, MB Quart, Pioneer, and Sony.

Yea, that's what I figured. If you have the $ I would say get some new ones. I know there's a guy on CACO that has some Hertz for sale.

I'd buy some new ones, maybe try a different company? I've had my comps for 2-3 years and I'm getting the itch to change, and you have a good excuse

They still sound ok right? I would use the other crossovers you have. Keep saving for your ho alt,get that first then invest in a nice comp set.

so after some thought out diagnostics i found out it was my driver side mid that was causing the noise, and only after the speaker was warmed up a little ~5 min of play time.
