Greetings everyone,?
I’m going to alter my DQ10’s by mounting the banana plugs near the circuit board and will remove the rheostat from the circuit, replace with resistors. However, the original rheostat is rated at 25 ohms, but, as I’ve chosen to go with Jantzen Suprese, wire wound resistors, the closest I can get is two 12 ohm resistors. I don’t know what the rheostat’s tolerance might be, but, I’m hoping a pair of these will do the trick? Nevertheless, I thought I’d write and ask what your thoughts might be??
In researching which resistors to use, I read that these Jantzen Suprese improve the SQ noticeably, in crossovers, even better than the Mundorfs and they’re relatively inexpensive, under $2. So, I got to thinking, is it worthwhile removing all the ceramic resistors in my DQ10s crossovers and replacing them with these? It doesn’t involve a lot of money. I should mention that Regnar rebuilt my pair about 20 years ago, including the crossovers.?
Any and all thoughts appreciated & thanks,?
John?
