Sadly my original Infinity Active Crossover that has served me faithfully with my RS 2.5's for years (it is visible at the top of the stack in my avatar) gave up the ghost about a week ago and now blows its ½ amp AC fuse as soon as the power switch is turned on. Although I have a great vintage audio repair shop about 20 miles away in San Francisco, not being able to find a schematic for the unit I have some concerns as to the possibility of getting it repaired and so have been looking for a reasonably priced contemporary replacement. In the meantime I am simply passively bi-amping the 2.5's.
The units I am looking at are the Behringer CX2310, the DBX 223S or XS, and the Nady CX22SW and was wondering if anyone has an opinion regarding any or all of them as a suitable replacement or otherwise another manufacturer's unit in the same price range that would be suitable.
I still may take the Infinity crossover up to L&M Electronics, the shop I mentioned previously, to see what advice they have relative to the possibility of repairing the Infinity unit for a rational cost but in the meantime would like to get a suitable replacement that I could just keep as a back up should a repair be feasible, although I know that any contemporary unit I purchase would probably outperform the 30+ year old Infinity.
Thanks in advance for any help and/or advice provided.
