[QUOTE="marleyskater420, post: 284442, member: 549075"] lastly, a 24db/octave crossover is the slope at which the crossover rolls off of the undesirable frequencies. in other words... every octave over or under the cut off point is going to drop 24 db. it helped me a lot just to see it in a slope form. something like this... 24db/octave 12db/octave - - - - - - - - - - - - - - so, as you can see, the driver is going to drop off of the cut-off point pretty quickly w/ a 24db octave slope meaning not many frequencies below your x-over point will be reproduced by the driver. i think a pretty common slope is 12db/octave, but i could be wrong. anyways, i hope that helped some. i'll let the elders of the board straighten out anything i screwed up. is the lower the octave the better?so like 12db/octave would be better than 24?learn me good [/QUOTE]
