BassJunkie Posted April 19, 2011 Report Share Posted April 19, 2011 (edited) Anyone used this? http://www.parts-express.com/pe/showdetl.cfm?partnumber=266-286&source=googleps 2,500 hz wouldn't be high enough of a crossover point for tweeters though would it? Just looking for a cost effective way of dedicating one channel of my amp to be a tweeter channel. EDIT: Found 6500hz Edited April 19, 2011 by BassJunkie Quote 1986 C20 Suburban 9 American Bass XFL 15's B2 M1MKII 14v XS Power Batteries Maxwell Caps Acoustical energy is free.

speedball1978 Posted April 19, 2011 Report Share Posted April 19, 2011 try it out.. wouldn't hurt.. you'd be only out 25 bucks.. instead of several hundred Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
korey_hofer Posted April 19, 2011 Report Share Posted April 19, 2011 all it is, is a passive cross over, for 25 you can build your own 4500-5500hz high pass.

speedball1978 Posted April 19, 2011 Report Share Posted April 19, 2011 i think tweeters have a 10000 hz crossover point.. if i'm not mistaken.. i think the ones he's lookin at are good for coaxials perhaps? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BassJunkie Posted April 19, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 19, 2011 So a 6500 could possibly work depending on my tweeters frequency response, I think I'm going to order a set, I'll keep you guys posted. Going to try it on some shitty tweeters first if no smoke i'll put in the good tweeters. Thanks guys. I see foreverbumpn lurking...hopefully he responds, very knowledgeable guy.

korey_hofer Posted April 19, 2011 Report Share Posted April 19, 2011 you won't smoke tweeters by having a higher xover point, you might have problems blending with mids though Quote previously known as wenn_du_weinst aka fucking internet coward supreme.

(correct me if I'm wrong) @ finkster, thats exactly what i was wanting to hear Quote 1986 C20 Suburban 9 American Bass XFL 15's B2 M1MKII 14v XS Power Batteries Maxwell Caps Acoustical energy is free.

korey_hofer Posted April 19, 2011 Report Share Posted April 19, 2011 some tweeters will play lower than others Quote previously known as wenn_du_weinst aka fucking internet coward supreme.
