Home Speaker Asylum

General speaker questions for audio and home theater.

RE: drivers out of phase?

The engineer who designed your crossover selected the driver polarity that would give the best performance in the crossover region taking driver rolloff (and its inevitable phase shift), crossover rolloff (and its inevitable phase shift), and driver physical (and acoustic) offset into account. In some cases this calls for normal polarity for all of the drivers, and in some cases it calls for reverse polarity on one of the drivers.


Me being a dealer makes you leery?? It gets worse... I'm a manufacturer too.
