[QUOTE="keep_hope_alive, post: 7496848, member: 576029"] i think using test tones are the best option (since a test tone CD is much cheaper than an RTA rig). and linear vs. logarithmic crossover dials depends on the amp. some amps use linear potentiometers so the crossover sweep is linear. but frequency is measured as logarithmic so the point may increase faster as frequency increases. as Audioholic says, measuring the slope after the speaker is preferred since you take all components into consideration, including frequency response and phase interference. i haven't had to worry about that in my setups for a while. my amps have crossover chips and/or i'm running active with digital controls.
