Alphas... Some tweeters... Pics inside.

It is a huge gap in SQ between the standard xover and the C-E even with this measly lower SQ version of the midrange driver... Figure about 7x12" for the xover if we don’t skimp on parts quality lol...

My old xovers for the dayton RS drivers had separate boards for the tweeters and midwoofers because they were so large...

Yes, 12 X 7" is getting a little big... I would think you would want to keep it under 9" X 6" //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif

Do you have a general link to this "CE" crossover you are talking about? - must be a relatively new type of crossover?

Save us some money... use electrolytic caps in everything but the series positions, LOL!

Edit: I wonder how expensive it would be to have an active crossover option for the higher end sets, like the Focal Utopia Be does? (Omega?)

The steeper the slope, the more the ripple, about an 8th order target provides the best group delay and fairly low ripple at the xover point (less than +-1dB).

It is actually a fairly old filter style…

It has a very uniform power response, even better than a 6th order LR.

Leave the color as is, so long as they sound good color doesnt really matter.
