I am going to be running a pair of RE XXX mids and a pair of tbd tweeters active. I have 2 2 channel amps available. I am just wondering if anybody can suggest a decent active crossover for ~150 or less that will run this system.

check out some old coustic XM-5e. Should be cheap and a solid x over
|
|
Which one would work best in my applicataion? I only need it for the fronts (mids/tweets).
|
The Vibex2 will probably have everything you need and is the least expensive...
the other Xovers just have different features... the optix2b being the most versitile.. |
^ according to the information, the vibe2's lowpass is limited to 250hz.. Drew plans on using it for mid's/tweet xover.. The OPTIX2B is the better choice sense its xover range is higher.
Drew, i have a audiocontrol 24xs that i dont use anymore.. Only thing is it uses r-net chips, instead of knobs. |
how hard are the r-net chips to acquire?
|
^ you can make your own by using common resistors. IF you have a really good idea of the xover freq you want (RE might be able to comment) then its not a big deal.
Myself when i was using it, i used my DQX to determine the xover point, then made the r-net to match.. When i did my 4-way system that is. |
PM sent.

Hi-Pass Crossover Adjustable Frequency From 80 To 2.5K Hz Lo-pass Crossover Adjustable Frequency From 35 To 400 Hz [img]graemlins/dunno.gif[/img] The highest lowpass setting would have your your midbass playing 3db down @ 500hz... If you wanted a higher setting then yes, look at the opti or another brand Xover... One feature you may want to look for which the optix2b and the VIBESX7 have is a fully isolated power supply... this goes 2x if you are mounting the xover very far away from your amplifiers... |
