I have a trends ta10.1 that drives the midrange and treble on my 3 way horn speakers. Trends goes full range and the low pass is filtered out by the speakers passive filter. The passive x-over between bass and mid is 400Hz. Bass horns are powered by a different amp trough an active crossover. I tried full active but this configuration sounds so much better. I would like to remove some bass frequencies going to the Trends to release it from unnecessary stress and distortion. I was thinking changing the input capacitors so that it creates a 300Hz high-pass filter. Would this work and which caps would you recommand for maximum sound quality? My trends is completely modded and uses high quality film caps but I forgot the brand. They are yellow with an AN logo - but no they're not audio note caps, if such a thing exists. |
