Hi!!!

I was thinking of replacing the LE85 and the H91 with the PRO 2441 drivers and the 2311 horns.
As I know the LE85 is a 8ohm driver and the 2441 is a 16 Ohm unit.
My question is, should also modify the crossover...?
In case I should, what are the necessary modifications?


Thank you so much for your HELP.

8 ohms = 16 ohms regarding LE85/2420 drivers (some threads about that on the forum ...). It's only marketing !

Regarding an 2" upgrade, take a look at that

My vote would be for leaving the L300 alone and building something custom to play around with.

My vote would be for leaving the L300 alone and building something custom to play around with.I agree. If you have the parts lying around give it a shot, but I don't think I'd mess around with the L300s. They are not perfect, but no speaker is. Replacing the drivers won't make them more perfect... just different.
