frequency separation in multi-way speakers

[AZhomegrown 10+ year member]

Sorry if i said it wrong but im refering to any speaker with a tweeter or multiple high frequency range speakers. I was curious if there was any sort of frequency separation with these. I see that components have a crossover and separate the lower frequencies from the highs. Is there something incorperated in these speakers to do this or does the whole range of frequencies play through all of the different highs?

thanks

So is that a no like i expected. Im pretty positive theres nothing but id like to know for sure, if there was something that i didnt know. So were gonna stick with there is no frequency separation between the mid-bass and the highs. Thanks for all the help.

Are you talking about coaxials?

Yes, coaxials have frequency separation between the midbass and the tweet(s) - but there's often times just an electrolytic cap placed in series with one of the leads, forming a simple 1st-order crossover...
