I wouldn't cross the SBs under 1200hz personally, but depends on listening habits. I have two pair of those tweeters and never had a dimple detach even though i read about that before buying. One is sitting around the house and I have the other pair in the car, I really love them. Cant compare them to the SSA tweeters as I haven't used them yet, but I do love my SSA mid drivers over my SB Acoustics mid drivers.

The Aura will require an enclosure or electronic cone control of some sort if you want to cross it over that low. I speak from experience here. Also, it rolls off steeply in the upper range (especially off-axis), so you may find yourself needing a small dome tweet raise the level. The Dayton ND20s work GREAT for this!

Hi-pass means the frequencies ABOVE your setpoint will be audible. Low-pass works the opposite; all frequencies below the setpoint will be your audible frequency band. A bandpass setting includes both a high and low crossover, effective creating a pass band within the setpoints: for instance the lowpass will be set at 1KHz, so everything below that will be audible up until you reach your highpass setpoint, such at, let's say 50Hz. So your effective passband or frequency range of said output would be 50Hz-1KHz. Examples: Lowpass set at 80 will filter frequencies above 80Hz while passing those below. Highpass set at 80 will filter frequencies below 80Hz while passing those above. This is a very generic answer and does not take slope or filter type into effect. You could easily get lost there with effective power filtering, which is basically what the crossover is doing, and also phase shift. We wont begin to get into that and you really need not worry about it unless you are competing.

The set i got for my wife sound amazing. Put them in Subaru Tribeca. I PERSONALLY haven't heard a better sounding set.

Cant speak to anything but the sound of them, and frankly it's amazing. Very warm and clear sound.

You shouldn't need audio mayhem to come here. Miss you round these parts.
