Well my initial problem was definitely the speaker internal/crossover switch. (That is after I sorted out my initial, initial problem of getting the interconnects made up with the somewhat unusual XLR connections.) Having oscillated the switch vigorously and getting the soundstage to balance correctly, after a couple of days it began to slew to the left again - more oscillation of the switch has corrected, but I suspect only temporarily; I shall need to get someone in to take it apart and clean properly or even hard-wire.
Ian, the massive ring at 1 kHz, is that with passive crossover, or, with an active crossover not having the LF levelling that jblbgw_man refers?
4313B is there a link to crossover detail for the 4430/4435 as per your recent comment? I have searched but have not come across it, just numerous references. It would be great if all this information on the 4430/4435 could be collated. I see someone else has today opened a new thread concerning active crossovers under the DIY Forum so this subject is certainly topical.
My OPA627 opamps arrived today, so that I can commence the 5235 upgrades as per jblbgw_man but it will be a little while as I have other bits to gather, and I do not trust my competency to do the work myself.
