replacing crossover with external one

Hi,

I have vintage speaker which i really like- Jbl L300.
I already recon the speakers, and now i'm checking the options for renew the crossover.
Far as check - renew the crossover is not trivial cause the crossover covered and really accessible .
SO the idea of external crossover came up... but i'm not really sure if it will give good results ,
The speakers(96 DB) are 3 ways with mid horns ,
I don't want to do Bi Amp by adding more amplifer to my system but want to stick to one tube amp monoblock per speakers.
Thanks!

Moving the crossover outboard is a great idea, as Ait wrote. Mine had enough room for much-higher-quality (= bigger) components, so the board is original. The board is hung from the wooden frame using long brass screws and hard-plastic tubing as spacers.
