SPR 60c crossover question

[brafferty]

SO on the crossover, there is an input set of wires, and a tweeter set of wires. How do i amp them? it looks like i can run directly to the speaker but am confused, i also dont plan on using the tweets

i believe on the woofer there are 3 terminals. 1 pos 2 neg. 1 of the negatives is a bypass if your using an active crossover. the crossover is only for the tweeters, apline just threw a cap on the woofer to save on space, if your not going to use the tweeter i wouldnt worry about the crossover, just make sure you dont hook up the input on the speaker to the bypass, and make sure its going through that cap.

actually it appears to be 5 terminals, 2 pos. 2 neg. and im assuming the single one by itsself is the bypass? does this matter or would it still be the same concept you explained? Just run the wire directly to the woofer?

There are 5 terminals, i have the spaeker right in front of me, 2 pos. 2 neg. and a bypass...... should i just run from the amp directly into the po. and neg. and skip using the crossover? i believe that is what gimling meant but just wanna be sure

Ohhhh ok i see it now, i feel absolutely stupid cause it was rather simple, but i had just never seen a speaker like this, and it didnt come with a manual (which is odd since there always is)

All good.
