Re: First Curve - Am I doing this right?


There's really no set rule to accomplish it... I just start sticking filters in there. Sometimes I'll let the Wizard suggest filters but I limit it to finding it to finding peaks between 20hz -70hz so that it doesn't give me a bunch of suggestions above the x-over point. Then I'll tweak from its' suggestions until I get what I want.

As far as the response above your crossover point... I don't mess with it unless there's a huge peak out there for some reason. You shouldn't notice those in that response above when listening.

Keep in mind that if you connect the output of your soundcard to an input on your receiver and engage your x-over, the response you then measure will be reflective of what your system is really producing. What you see above the crossover point would then be what you will actually get with the x-over engaged.
