ncc74656 Posted August 13, 2013 Report Share Posted August 13, 2013 so i was told in another post that having to high of a Xover frequency can cause leads to burn up inside a sub. assuming the signal is not clipping can to high a xover point cause excessive heat build up in the coil or the tinsel leads? nothing, gutted Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smashedz28 Posted August 13, 2013 Report Share Posted August 13, 2013 How high are you referring to? Not sure about the heat issue. I know you don't want to cross a sub too high. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bkolfo4 Posted August 13, 2013 Report Share Posted August 13, 2013 If you are playing high tones or you have the SSF set really high it could limit cone movement which reduces cooling. If you are just playing music under normal situations, you can turn the LP filter up. Many home speakers have woofers crossed over up to 1k. Most people would say a subwoofer does not sound good above 100 Hz. Current system: 1997 Blazer - (4) Customer Fi NEO subs with (8) American Bass Elite 2800.1s Previous systems: 2000 Suburban - (4) BTL 15's and (4) IA 40.1's = 157.7 dB at 37 Hz. 1992 Astro Van - (6) BTL 15's and (6) IA 40.1's = 159.7 dB at 43 Hz.

bkolfo4 Posted August 13, 2013 Report Share Posted August 13, 2013 Should not be an issue. Current system: 1997 Blazer - (4) Customer Fi NEO subs with (8) American Bass Elite 2800.1s Previous systems: 2000 Suburban - (4) BTL 15's and (4) IA 40.1's = 157.7 dB at 37 Hz. 1992 Astro Van - (6) BTL 15's and (6) IA 40.1's = 159.7 dB at 43 Hz.
