First Watt B4 arrives today - setup questions for Tymp I-Ds


Is 1000 Hz with 6 dB/octave correct? I saw a spec for 1100 Hz posted. It appears the First Watt can be set up for a variety of frequencies but they do give sample instructions for 1000 Hz in the manual.

Will I be able to set up an active XO by ear? My woofer and tweeter amps are not the same.

I am borrowing a frequency analyzer today. Will I need a frequency sweep source? Is there a download available for this?

Will I start with the level controls on the XO all the way up and adjust from there? There are no level controls on my power amps.

How do I make sure the woofers are in phase with the tweeters? I have an app on my Android phone called Polarity Checker but have not tried to use it.

Any advice greatly appreciated!
