Don't feel bad...the only way I became aware of the HP-5's was from reading the FAQs on Vandersteen's site. It is hard to figure why Richard V. doesn't have an accessory page on the website that talks about the different Xovers and what they're about. I have X-2's that I used for about a year before i learned of the 5's. I must admit that if you are willing to invest the $600 to get them they are a definite step up, sonically. The most notable improvement was in the area of overall transparency. Also, the 5's are adjustable much like the WX-2 Xover box that comes with the 2wq's. So...if you change amps in the future and your new amp has a different input impedance, you can keep the 5 and just adjust it accordingly.Again...check out the Vandersteen FAQ section for info. on the HP-5.
