[QUOTE="squeak9798, post: 2367235, member: 555320"] Neither They both will affect the signal according to the xover frequency they are set at and their individual slope and type of filter. Well, if they both were the exact same type of filter and both were set to exactly the same frequency, then essentially their slopes would combine. If they both defined the "crossover frequency" as the point where the signal is attenuated by -3db, and you set them both to 50hz...then the signal the speaker would receive would be -6db down at 50hz. If they were both 12db/oct crossovers, then the signal would be -24db down at 25hz. You can cascade them, but the final result (the signal the speaker receives) will be the product of both crossovers together. And, depending on the situation...the final result may be more desireable then using either filter independently. See above. Niether. They would both affect the signal in the manor in which they were designed....which means you would need to know specifics (how the xover frequency is defined [generally it's the -3db point, but not always), their slope, the type of filter they are [butterworth, LR, etc]) in order to predict the final outcome.....
