[QUOTE="Sguirrelfeather, post: 8593869, member: 668995"] I did a bunch of reading and have come to a conclusion, but I wanted to run it by those much more knowledgeable than I to see if I'm on the right track. I know the difference between the two and how the sums are either zero or +3dB. What I'm wondering is if there is a consensus on which one works best when setting crossovers for a three way active system. From what I have read, due to the vastly different interiors, driver placement, personal preference, etc, I should just try both and see what I think sounds best. Does this sound about right? If not, should I be doing something else? I'm just waiting on a new set of mids to come in and then I can finally get my three way setup done, so I want to be a step ahead when that time comes. Thanks in advance! EDIT: I realized I didn't quite say what I meant. I also wanted to know about slopes. 12dB, 18dB, 24dB, etc. I know how those affect some aspects, but not all. Should I experiment with those as well, or just stick with the steepest slope, or shallowest, etc, etc. [/QUOTE]
