Hi all,
I have in my possession:
4x Fane colossus 12MB
2x BMS 4544
2x P-Audio PH-3220 horn flares
I plan on slapin these in an X12 speaker ( removed link ), but I’m not sure how to design the crossover due to the two woofers impact on the process.
How do I measure the Z offset? Should i use both woofers during measurements as if there were only one? which woofer should axis displacement be calculated off?
I currently don’t have access to Xsim, I have a DSP mic on the way and have heard that DATS is a good investment to make. Could anyone point me in the right direction in regard to getting the X-OVER started for this build?
Thanks, K
K,
If both woofers will be used as one woofer, then you measure the z-offset with both woofer playing. What I mean by using it as one, is will they be playing the same response. If so, then measure them together. If you are doing more of a 2.5 way, then you would measure them separately.
This video is the easiest way to measure your z-offset:
This shows you how to import that measurement into xsim:
