Home Speaker Asylum

General speaker questions for audio and home theater.

What's your crossover frequency/slope to the Neo 3s?

Those are some lovely tweeters, and seem to prefer a higher/steeper xo, well above the lower-end "blump" centered on 2.4kHz. I have them in some small DIY standmounts, crossed at 4.2kHz (-6dB) to some really smooth Peerless 5.25" midbass units that were on closeout at Madisound some years back. Slopes are 2nd order electrical LP, and 3rd order electrical HP. They sound SO MUCH nicer than they did in a previous iteration crossed at 2kHz, 2nd order! Shimmer and sparkle and highly resolved detail to be sure, but with a delicacy and refinement that easily equals or surpasses the best domes I've heard.
