3-way crossover for midbass/midrange/tweeter?

[aeronautica86 10+ year member]

I'm planning on putting together a DIY 3-way component system and I need to find an active crossover that will work for it, problem is that every 3-way crossover I see has a low pass for a sub, high and low pass for mids and high pass for tweeters.

What I need is an active crossover that has a high and low pass for midbass, high and low pass for mids, and a high pass for the tweeters. Anyone know of a crossover that has these features?

Get a 3-way and combine it with another 2 way to give you the 4-way that you're looking for. That or use a crossover on the amp to give you the high-pass for the midbass and thus a full bandpass on it.

Don't get locked into the mindset that the one processor has to do it all. It used to be that a typical high end system would have several crossovers, a pair of mono EQs and sometimes another component or two for he random odd task. If you're doing something more than the standard 2 or 3-way (including the sub) setup you have to expect that you're going to have to do something a little different for processing.

hmm, never thought of that, i had just been looking for a single do-it-all processor solution; using a 2 way and a 3 way should work just fine - it just never crossed my mind

Check this out. I've been using one for a couple of years with no problems. I'm running a 3 way front with sub also.
