[QUOTE="joetama, post: 3558346, member: 564641"] Wow. 10 kHz seems a bit high to cross that driver over. I would say he is going to have more issues with crossing over the subwoofer at 200 Hz than he would have crossing the mid and tweeter at 3 kHz. By 3k most of the bulk of the vocal energy is spent and you only have some harmonic energy left. It is important to reproduce these harmonics but not important enough to drive the driver into being beamy and sounding like butt. If he crosses it over correctly he should have a fine response in the 3 kHz range. If he was building the subwoofer into the box and using a more midrange designed driver which would handle the higher frequencies better then I would say 200 Hz and maybe 3-5k crossover to the tweeter.
