Seems like DIY crossovers is gonna be outta my league sorry to say. As an alternative, what do you guys think about full range drivers like the TB titanium 4" drivers ?
I agree with you, Brian and Anthony - full rangers aren't a bad place to start. I spent a lot of my early design time on full rangers. They are neat and are excellent for vocals but tend to not do so great on the highest and lowest octaves.

I'd also suggest buying some cheap drivers and doing some experimenting. Crossover design seems daunting at first but with a little reading and hands-on experimenting it rapidly stops being black magic. I'd say with less than $100 in cheap drivers and electronic parts you can get a very solid foundation in crossover design which will allow you to do more complicated and impressive designs.
