[QUOTE="hispls, post: 8745339, member: 614752"] I haven't used that unit but Dayton is a good brand in general and I haven't seen anything bad posted about them. Also I think a lot of DIY guys use them so I'd imagine common troubleshooting issues are all just a google search away. Consider buying direct from PartsExpress and you may get better support/service if it doesn't just work out of the box. In layman's terms, the heavier the moving mass is of a loudspeaker, the worse it performs at high frequencies. ANYTHING with big power handling and excursion will by necessity be (comparatively) heavy moving mass. Notice the 2 way kit they sell for these crosses over at only 1400hz . From my own experience I can confirm that you'll have best results crossing off there or not much higher. Again, consider a large format tweeter if you're trying to go 2 way with those.
