I already know much of what you go over in these explanation videos, but I watch every one of them because of how good at laying it all out you are.

Great explanation. I would be interested in a video showing the real life application/process of setting up crossovers properly!

I just love the way you explain each topic. Thanks so much

Good video. The phases of the drivers don't neccessarily need to align as you can use filter Qs other than .5 (Linkwitz or -6db) such as .71 (Butterworth/ -3db) and also filter orders other than 2nd, and you might be able to make it work that way.

Been here since the beginning. Back after a while. So glad to see this channel grow. I'm glad there's someone explaining the fundamentals so well in a field full of snake oil. Beginners will benefit a lot from your channel. And even professionals can pick up important points. Great work!

Nice explained, thanks from India

From this video I know: passive = amp -> filter -> transducers active = filter (DSP) -> amps -> transducers So the next question may be: what are the pros and cons of passive v.s. active crossover design? Thank you for this consise tutorial.

Super intro to crossovers, thank you! One comment... ­[EDITED further down] Coming from the computer world, I'd rather talk about "Crossover circuitry", than "crossover networks" ;^).. Indeed, the term "crossover" already contains that idea of directing "stuff" to the right place, in our case that "stuff" being analog (or digital) electrical signals: adding the attribute "network" would be a pleonasm... If not misleading: in a network, nodes communicate between each others, while in a crossover circuitry, those "nodes" elctronic elements essentially act upon an input, having quite different functionalities (except may when there's a row of capacitors, resistances or whatnot), without any restriction when it presents itself at the gate of such element in order to provide an "output", and don't care about anything else including other "nodes". IMHO, It'd rather be some _kind of a switching device_ than a "network"... *EDIT:* after some thoughts (I'm new to the Audio technical World)... I understand why you speak of crossover "network", especially in "hybrid" mode, when there are more than one crossover devices in the sound system and which are acting on the response of a previous crossover device. e.g. using an active crossover before the amplification, along passive crossover devices (or "crossover nodes") that would be present in one or more speaker cabinets so as to "switch" from a driver to another, depending on a predetermined frequency band (which is thus acting like a specific "driver address", in a network of speaker drivers where each crossover behaves similarly to a network switcher).

Killer as always, Kyle!

Best explanation on the internet

Hello, I love your channel I've been binging your content for weeks now, thanks for all the clear and concise info. Could you consider making a video on speaker enclosure design, enclosed, vs front ported vs back ported in different room sizes? It's been difficult for me to find info on the subject.

Love me some audio frequencies!

How do you calculate what slope and at what frequency to crossover in order to find the -6db transition

Plaine and simple . Thanks. :)

instead of loudspeaker management system, can i just use crossover?

Great video, as always boss. 🎧

What about powered speakers that already have internal hardware dictating the sound profiles.? Awesome video BTW!

Saludos desde mexico 🇲🇽 buenos tutoriales. 100%recomendables. Podras hacer un video de como trabajar un DBX DRIVERRACK PA.

What a Great video!! I never understood those

This is beautiful stuff 😍

you can also make an active crossover with operational amplifiers and passive components. which is really the best way to do it if your not processing the signal. can be integrated within the amplifier. you can make a state variable filter that gives you high low and bandpass (middle) frequencies all in one filter. active filter design in analog is complicated there is a lot of stuff. you do that before the signal is amplified not before because op amps dont really provide much current to drive speakers. so you do it at line level signal. id bet some old school gear did it that way. I use op amp for my audio projects a lot

Awesome xplanations, as always.

Does anyone know what's a slope?

Hi, this might be a silly question but basically I have a sound system that works like this: PC Sound to 3 channel mixer, Mixer output to powered sub line in, powered sub line out to a Bluetooth amplifier which feeds my main aiwa hifi speakers. The crossover that is set to 90hz on my sub doesn't appear to work. I can still hear frequencies below 60hz on my speakers. Do you have any solutions for this problem?

can you explain how to set up a 5.1 monitor systems including the room treatments

Thank you so much sir

Sir what is the best coupling design for tweeter,to got the best quality?

Have you thought about making speaker reviews or in depth speaker breakdowns and set ups on another channel? (Not sure if it would fit on Audio University channel is all)

lo tuyo es increíble, unos subtitulos ayudarían mucho

Crossovers are also filters

thanks

I have 2 3-way component speakers (Audison APK 163) for the front and back. I also have a Audison APBX 10 AS2 Prima Subwoofer. What is the best amplifier for this set-up of 12 total speakers and a subwoofer?

I my church we only have a 100w amp for indoor units and the speakers are 100w+100w(peak) and have 16 ohm connections. Is there any way to reduce the power consumption of the speakers.we are ready to sacrifice sound quality or volume level.

Please make subtitles, thank you very much

2-way speaker or 2-way speaker ,which is best?

1:58 shouldn't the the high pass filter be on the tweeter and the low pass filter on the subwoofer?

Can't I use tweeter for car audio to active speakers

Hi sir, a small doubt I have Klipsch RC 52 crossover, it is used to rc 62 speaker drivers

hi sir can I use 8 ohm tweeters with my speakers is 6 ohm

Shouldn't it be a straight line? You have two dips where they intersect

My woofer keeps on going on standby when ever start playing a song please help

@2:23 very nice fase matching.

Can you add subtitle?

Hello enable translation thanks

🙂🙂🙂

I can't understand fully and English not my language doesn't help

Question please. Do main outputs and mon (monitor) output are totally separate lines. My problem is because I get alot of high frequency loss from my floor monitors when the bass is playing . We loose guitar high and some meds frequency. I do have crossover from my subwoofer to my top speakers but there is no low cut or frequency cut setting in the mon output and so my monitors speakers don't have any settings for it
