PostSubject: 3 way tuning   3 way tuning Icon_minitimeWed Sep 24, 2008 3:12 am

quick question for you SQ guys.... Wheres a good starting point for setting the crossovers on a 3 way setup? I have an 8" hertz HV200 midbass sealed, CDT 7" ES-07 midrange IB, and Rockford Fosgate 25mm FNX tweeter. Tonight i did the most in depth tuning I've done so far and even thou i'm satisfied with the sound just thinking of the crossover points and all that i know the drivers can do better.

For the 8" midbass do i or should i expect voice from them? Prior to tonight i had them crossed at 65 and somewhere ~ say 200 (dont know for sure since the HP is at the amp) now i have them at 60 and the hp almost as low as it goes and theres no vocals. should i bump them back up?

For the 7" CDTs i have the LP crossed pretty high probably somewhere from 120 to 200hz ... ive always preferred them with a high crossover point. The HP on them is 4k (both the midbasses and midranges are bandpassed on the 360.2 with a 12db xover)

The tweets are what really concerns me. When i was "tuning" with only the tweets on there wasn't anything i could do to make it sound "good". I do agree that the fosgate tweets aren't the best and i can probably do better but i have a feeling i dont have them crossed over at a good point at all. Should i be getting vocals from the tweets? Do i want to blend them with the midranges crossing them below 4k? or should it be above 4k and blend at -3db or whatever (don't know how to explain... like the simple universal crossover graph) And do you guys usually leave them flat? I haven't touched the EQ on anything but the tweeters... i just sloped the freqs down to -4db at 20k


Thanks in advance to everyone that helps... maybe just maybe i can get my setup done and sounding good and see you guys in the lanes next yr

Give us an idea as to where you are mounting these components. Especially the tweets. Thanks

the 8" midsbasses are o.k , i even run them lower sometimes .
the biggest problem when tweeters don't sound good is cause they are crossover too low .i would try to bring'em up to 5000 k especially
sense your crossover is 12db .but , you also might need to bring your midrange to 5k .
