Yeah dude they rock, and if you wire them in backwards they block treble instead.

















































Actually..... They work, but will never replace a well designed x-over. So no you can't use them in place of a x-over on tweeters.

ya and that is basically a 6db crossover.


They work super awesome for installs with more than 20 speakers.

Answer A. 6 db cross over. Thats when you take the 12 db cross over that comes with your components and cut it in 1/2.

Answer B. 6 db x-over means your output one octave below the x-over point will be 9 db below the original signal.

Answer C. 6 db x-over means your output one octave below the x-over point will be 6 db below the original signal.

Even with a study guide I bet you a buck he can't pick the right answer.

How about this Nathan. If you can pick the right answer I will stop giving you shit.

Let me sweeten the deal. If you even acknowledge my post I will tell you why a 6 db an octave x-over won't work in your situation.
