I have a pair of 604b's one I bought with a N-1600C crossover with a knob to balance between the woofer and the horn, the other one someone gave me but without the divider. I finally got permission to set them up in the living room, so I went on Ebay and bought a crossover, but I made a mistake and ordered a N-1600A without the "balance" control. My Question is can I still use it? Is there a way to add a "balance" control to it or is it even necessary?
