As with most JL x-overs, the woofers roll off naturally to avoid complex saturated x-overs.
Can you explain that further Dave? No challenge or anything as I have not heard these drivers but hear enuf about them to know they must be very nice. </font>[/QUOTE]Dukk, I made an errorin what I typed. Thanks for pointing it out. I corrected it, what I was trying to was they typically used a 1st order LP filter (the odd set does have a second order)

Thumbs up

I have had my XR525cs set for a couple of months now, and I am very happy with the sound... [img]graemlins/thumb.gif[/img] [img]graemlins/@bow.gif[/img]
I would imagine the 3 way set sounds great as well, and I look at the cost as an investment rather than a purchase, because any time I sell my current vehicle those little puppies are coming with me... [img]graemlins/headbang.gif[/img]

In most cases, really a 2 way setup is sufficient. Depending on the application and what suits it best. If you want midbass, often a 6½ in a good baffled door enclosure puts out the midbass. I myself would only consider a 3 way if there was an 8" or 7" driver. There's too much possible range over-coverage, IMO with a 6, 4, and tweet. I hope I'm not losing you here. [img]smile.gif[/img]
Nope not losing me lol, I know the main basics about this stuff, just looking at getting 3-4 way setup but wanted opions before I purchase... Only thing outta this post that does confuse me is the 2nd 3rd order crossovers and **** lol

So would you say you get your bang for your buck with the XR-653's? Or should I look else where what would be comparable in a 3 way setup [img]graemlins/dunno.gif[/img]
