Crossover issue.

I have two identical crossovers... 1 left 1 right.
Every capacitor, coil etc... Are identical in make, value, etc and have just been redone by a reputable audio engineer.
Problem is the mid-bass section of the crossover has the right channel 8-10 db louder throughout the entire band 150 - 1500 hz. as compared to the left.
Ideas or opinions?

Thanks in advance.

BTW... I have 5 items for sale currently... Check then out. Amp, Sub, 3 sound processor units.

DATS does it all, end to end, and lets you measure the individual components as well, including the drivers.  Everything else to me seems like trial and error.

A microphone and test signal would only tell you if they performed differently. 

DATS will give you a very good idea why.

Well my suggestion was just a start.  DATS is a great tool for diagnosing all sorts of problems.  By looking at the bad impedance curve you can tell if one or another section looks like it is missing, and the LCR measurements can discover bad drivers or components.

btw here is an outline of how I fixed a similar issue recently

Sounds like something broke.  That's the idea. :)

If it were me I would take out a DATS V2 from Dayton Audio and use it to compare the impedance curves of the drivers and the crossovers to diagnose.

I also recommend asking at DIYaudio where you can actually post pictures of your findings.
