May 11, 200619 yr I'd stay away from those crossovers, though...especially for a TMM setup.If you can afford a used set, a pair of Klipsch Heresy's will tear your ears off given proper amplification...HLCD's for midrange and highs. In-room sensitivity of around 92dB/W.
May 11, 200619 yr Well, out of that, I would have just skipped the $40 in crossovers Homebrewing an Xover, especially with multiple midbasses, will make an average loudspeaker sound excellent.DIYaudio.com would be my first place to go to ask for advice about Xover design...some really knowledgeable people on there.Good choice in drivers though.
May 11, 200619 yr whats a TMM setup? hahashould i cancel crossovers and get different ones?<{POST_SNAPBACK}>Tweet - Mid - MidI'd cancel the crossovers, keep the drivers, and maybe make another order with the crossover parts once you know what you need. Or just wait on the entire order until you have the crossover designed.
May 11, 200619 yr Time to do a little research Go on DIYaudio.com, there are tons of knowledgeable people that should be able to help you out. Would be my first stop.http://www.termpro.com/articles/xover2.htmlAlmost required reading for this sort of thing.
May 11, 200619 yr Pffhbbbt.I just hope I never have to touch the Xovers in the Klipschs. Three way with HLCDs and a PR...no way to make that simple.
May 11, 200619 yr I bet my amp has less than 2x the parts yers has.....and that says A LOT about a SS amp
