    Crossover Question
    the crossover in one of my Pioneer CS 99a's recently failed. The sub is not working, but it works fine in the other speaker, so i assume it is the crossover. How should I go about finding a new or replacement crossover for this speaker? Is it repairable?
    I'm really fustrated about not being able to listen to my stereo at the moment.
    I would greatly appreciate any help or advice from someone who has knowledge about the situation.
    Thanks

    According to this replacement parts information from Pioneer, a replacement crossover (aka "network") is no longer available for your speaker directly from Pioneer. Oak Tree Enterprises is offering a replacement crossover for your speaker for $65. The old crossover could also be repaired, either by yourself or by a Pioneer service center. Before you try to fix or replace the old crossover, however, I recommend that you open up the speaker and look for loose or corroded connections between the crossover and the subwoofer. Before you authorize any repair at a service center, I recommend that you ask for an estimate. You may find that the repair cost is so high that the repair is not worthwhile.
