Trying to find a good active crossover or even a cheap DSP for a 4-way system


Recommended Posts

I can't seem to find many options avalible for what I am trying to do but I want to be able to actively set the frequency range to each of my speakers. Stereo channel for my tweeters, stereo channel for my 6.5" mids, stereo channel for my 8" mid bass, and then a mono channel for my subwoofers. DSP's are a bit too expensive for what I am trying to do and I am not interested in the EQs or timing delay as this is more of a SQL system than a SQ system. Are there any good crossovers that are 4 way that I can set custom frequency ranges for what I am trying to do? Really not trying to spend more than $200 on this thing as i've already invested quite a bit of cash in all the other equipment.

A little over my budget but for only $75 more dollars they sell a DSP "C-DSP 6x8". Might end up getting that then. Before I buy this thing though it says it has 6 input channels meaning it will work for my system correct? Wouldn't that mean that I could only run 3 stereo signals then? Meaning i'd have to just stick to using the built in crossover on my amp for the subwoofer?

I've got one, its great.  It has eight output channels so you have a channel for each of your tweets, mids, and mid-bass plus a seperate channel for your subs.  It should do exactly what you want to do.

On a side note, you might have better luck blending running 5.25” midrange drivers verses 6.5” drivers. A 6.5” driver is not a true midrange.

I always thought 6.5" were supossed to be optimal since 3" is too small and 8" were too big. 5.25" never even crossed my mind as they aren't as common of a size. Anyways I already made my pods and bought my speakers so I can't really go back now but thanks for the tip for in the future.
