Why not put crossover networks in accessible compartments?


Why not put crossover networks in accessible compartments? Seems as though speakers could easily be designed with easily accessible compartments that allow changing components. Does anyone do that?

The Watkins WE-1 from the early 80's had a recessed area covered with a Plexiglass cover so that the crossover and the circuit board it sat on was visible. It was done not so the owner could fiddle with it; it was done because the crossover actually looked good and to show that the speaker wasn't just a cabinet with twenty bucks worth of resistors and capacitors in it.
