[QUOTE="thylantyr, post: 1250287, member: 560358"] [B]ok now i have another problem...i am finding multiple drivers that do not even offer these frequency response graphs... [/B] My favorite sounding midranges had no published response graphs, yet I was able to determine that they sounded better than other high end drivers by doing in depth auditions. Later, I found some graphs on some of them and they aren't pretty - but they are top notch in SQ. [B]all i could find is "Frequency: 20-5000 Hz" [/B] Doesn't tell you much. Doesn't tell you it's SQ. [B]...is my only option here to play with my DCX and figure out where to cross it over? [/B] Run the driver full range to hear what it does 'naturally' out of the box. Compare it to other drivers playing full range, you will figure out what it's able to do. [B]or would i be safe doing like an 8th order L-R bandpass from 20-5000?[/B] Don't use that method. One step at a time. [/QUOTE]
