You would be crazy not to

This is the most elegant approach.

I am using Room Equalization Wizard to see what my horns are actually doing in my room.

Textbook values will be close but it is good to be sure.

I am using the JUPITER copper foil caps at the moment. I have had to parallel another small cap to get the right value.

Sometimes the nominal input impedance is not as constant as you would think so it is a good idea to measure what is happening in the room and at the crossover point.

My amps require input and output caps so I have sized them both for my high pass crossover.
