Well of course the crossover is important. Arguably THE most important component of the loudspeaker. After all, the best drivers with a crappy crossover will not likely sound better than average drivers with a well-designed crossover. At the same time, an enclosure with all kinds of resonances can undo much of what a well-designed crossover and high quality drivers can accomplish. Michael Green's "tunable" enclosures not withstanding, most manufacturer's go to great lengths to make cabinets as inert as possible.The three primary legs of any speaker design, good drivers, a well-designed crossover, and a cabinet that compliments the first two, have to work together. Dropping the ball in one area can severely compromise the other two.
