Default Need new crossovers for Boston Acoustics components

Got the RC61 speakers de-installed and the crossovers are in real bad
shape.

Boston Acoustics will sell me new ones at $50 each.

Now I'm torn between spending the $100 or just get a new set of
component speakers (e.g: JL Audio XR650 CSI).

[Alpine 9857 HU, Alpine 3553 amp, Boston Acoustics RM6 in the rear]

Any idea where I can shop around for new crossovers?

TIA

Are they in "bad shape" in the sense they don't work anymore ? It is a
simple, and cheap, process to replace the caps and such. You can get premium
poly caps from Solen for a couple of bucks each. Same goes for the inductor
coils. The most expensive part of a crossover is the circuit board and outer
case. The actual inner working components are inexpensive.
