Is a crossover needed for bandpass boxes?
I read somewhere that bandpass boxes naturally filter out high frequencies.
So would I still need to use a crossover? Thanks Jon |

Hi Jon !

I had two vehicles ( removed one of the BP boxes for now, may put it back, )with BP boxes. They definitely sound better (cleaner) with the LPF engaged. Besides, why would you want to send the all the freq's to subs ? bobwatts -- Diesel Chevette World ! //////////*****\\\\\\\\\\ Bob Watts Watts Carburetion Service Cincinnati, Ohio Since 1984 \\\\\\\\\\*****////////// http://w3.one.net/~watscarb/dieselvette.htm |

Yes... All the power the amp exerts amplifying high frequency tones goes
to waste. Just because the high freq tones can not be heard through a BP, doesn't mean they are not being amplified. Garrett Jon wrote: I read somewhere that bandpass boxes naturally filter out high frequencies. So would I still need to use a crossover? Thanks Jon |

And a subsonic filter may not be a bad idea either!
