Bill you need to have speakers that work, you simply can't compensate for drive unit deficiences with a DSP any more than you can with an analogue electronic crossover. To talk about high end or low end is misleading, correct engineering is what counts.

For instance, a typical High End 3" dome rolls out at 12dB at best and typically 24dB per Octave below 500Hz, resonance is usally around 400 Hz and this is before a crossover is applied. Please explain how a DSP can resolve this problem and produce seamless phase and amplitude integration of the bass drive (or the tweeter for that matter because they are just as bad at the top)with adjoining drive units.

We've found that drive unit anomolies cannot be corrected and that crossovers must conform to classic theory, hence my stating in my previous posting that only broad bandwidth ones will work properly.
