In the grand scheme, it's all personal taste for sure. I would typically set the frequencies to best match the speakers range. If the mid range says 150 to 5k... well, set the crossover as close as possible to max and min of that freq. range without going beyond. That way you are maximizing the speakers ability.
I think this is one of the best videos I found so far. I watch another video that said the gain is like volume(which I believe is isn’t since it changes the frequency), and I found it weird
If my amplifier doesn't have high pass would this crossover allow the highs to play clear or would it still have only low pass?? I need to know before I purchase another amplifier
KooL I wish my installer would of used one of those manual control crossover devices instead of a high-end technical DSP helix MK2 to which I don’t have a freaking clue how the first thing about using that thing, ps sucks hearing these systems recorded by phone and listened through ph because it sounds like distortion like the sound of that plastic or fabricated door panel
The tweeter frequency settings are especially prone to at least double the FS frequency spec. You don’t even show the frequency range of each component, that would give a better idea of where your frequency setting should be. Another thing you didn’t explained is your frequency source, what spectrum does it have, is it full range or mid to high? Full range is what your crossover calls FLAT, and if you go FLAT, there is no point to using a crossover, unless you use passive crossovers, which defeats the purpose of an active crossover.
You don’t know what you are doing with the mid frequency, you need to check the FS spec for the mids and go up by 50% of the frequency, up to 100% of the mid frequency, your high pass should be based on the FS of the mid, your low pass should be based on how high the mid frequency can play.
Why are you using active crossovers? Most amps have crossovers built in, or the way to go is with a DSP. Even aftermarket stereos have crossovers built in. Those external crossovers are dinosaurs, you are in the past.
Truck sounds good bro sounds loud can't wait to see when you start your trail blazer
For sure ..hopefully soon I can host a car audio show or a meet in the area!
Bro ur very helpful man was looking for videos like this for months dam thanks man
I do it for the culture 💯💯🔈🔈
@@mouse_trap. wanna be like u bro I deal with sounds too getting there surly
The gains are dependent on the impedance of the source signal and also on the power handling of the speakers receiving the amplified power.

Great how to mouse, setting crossovers can get confusing

Hey did u turn ya gain down on your amplifier or did u use a smd dd1.
what slope were you using with those filters?

How do I run the RCAs from my LOC to my 6 channel DSP??? Running a mono amp and 4 channel amp to a amp pro gm61
Can I use the With the DSP???

I have 0 engine noise or white noise and it’s very user friendly versus having to look thru the digital settings
my tweeters crossover is 3.1 kHz so my mids need a lowpass of 3.1 kHz this DSP can’t work for me
Answer the comments and you good to go

How do I hook 3 eqs to crossover ? I have 1 for high 1 for mids 1 for bass .
Give me a few days and I’ll upload a video for you big dog
Hey mr which more louder mono or stereo mode
Mono but stereo just gives you the full surround sound ..I like stereo
@@mouse_trap. question so if my amps are one channel that means I’m running in mono not stereo
Do I NEED amps going into all 3 pairs of speakers/tweeters, or can I run this strait into the speakers?
Banda has better audio quality over taramps any day 😎, try them out I have two beat 3000.2 and those things slaps my 18 sound 12nmb1000 and 10M600.
do i need the eq if i have the prv dsp?
You don’t have to but it helps really define the sound that much better.. separate Eqs for everything is good as well
No, a good digital signal processor will do everything and more than a standard eq or crossover can do. Adding one would be a waste.
Wish it had bluetooth.
That’s for sure ‼️‼️‼️

Answer the comments would be great. Thumbs down for no response
