There are a lot of toutorials on the internet and a few design programs out there. Not too sure about a kit, but someone probably has one of those too.

this should help you quite a lot when actually putting the crossover together and figuring what parts need to be bought.

but you will have to figure out the theory on WHAT crossover points and slopes to use.

What are you building these crossovers for? And how important is quality to you? And how much are you willing to spend?

They would be for a set of book shelves I want decent quality with out spending a to of money i would say in the 500 range for drivers....

Read enough of this crap and those $30,000 Line arrays start to make sense //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/tongue.gif.6130eb82179565f6db8d26d6001dcd24.gif
