vandersteen 2w subwoofer


I hope someone more tech-savvy than I am can shed some light: would it be possible to replace the proprietary x-2 crossover with a high-pass filter generated by the parametric EQ of a DSP engine? I tried to roll-over 6db/octave at around 80Hz, and it seems to work -- but I don't know if that could potentially damage the subwoofer.
Thank you in advance,
Roberto

Thank you both! I am using Benchmark DAC2 HGC as preamp (no bass management); DSP is done through Roon (as far as I understand, EQ is applied to a digital signal). I will go ahead with DSP then, since I believe there is something wrong with my X-2 crossovers.
