[QUOTE="Gary S, post: 1910907, member: 568291"] 3.5 K, 12db electrical/24db acoustical sounds good enough to me. I assume the tweeter has ferofluid... the self-damping characteristic of the oil sounds like what would push the crossover up to 24db acoustical. I'm not sure a big crossover would be a problem.... it's not like trying to fit a 7" speaker in a 6.5" hole... those crossovers can be hidden behind a panel anywhere. I have a set of DEI Viper components here... the crossover is pretty good sized... measures 7.25" X 5.5"... but they are only 1.36" high. I think as long as they are not quite as big as those new full range "digital" Alpine amps, they might be fine. Plus, I wonder if you could split the tweeter and midrange crossover into two sections for more installation flexability... now there's an idea! [/QUOTE]
