Tweaks for systems, rooms and Do It Yourself (DIY) help. FAQ.

My view is that IF you are going with digital sources ONLY

you do use something like the Behringer, DEQ,
but WITH a measurement mike so as to get it right, after 'trying stuff'!

Also do use drivers that 'could have worked together' - eg. available in a kit with designed and supplied passive xovers, box plans or flat pack. and look at the xover frequency's for those.

Note that applying standard analogue active xovers - to spkrs already OEM'd with high quality passive xovers, can NOT be guaranteed to give 'better' results, unless

a) you measure - and follow - the voltage transfer functions of the OEM passive xovers in the spkrs, and 'tweak' from there on, OR

b) get the Mfr's own 'active upgrade' slopes / advice - if they can be bothered? Which may NOT be the same as their OEM passives,
anyway / either!

Think - about it.
