- Crossover Design -
The crossover design is a basic three-way design crossed at
around 400 Hz and 2.2 kHz; the details can be seen in the
schematic. I initially started with higher crossover points on both ends of the midrange, but I was not satisfied with the dispersion
characteristics, so went back to the drawing board and pushed
things a bit lower. While this probably reduces the power
handling somewhat, it produces a much more open sound that
is more “hi-fi ” in nature. Even with these crossover points, the
speakers should easily be able to handle several hundred watts
RMS and play quite loudly even by pro-sound standards. |
