Question on Crossovers
I have an AudioControl 2XS and I am going to order a crossover module for either 60 or 70Hz. Can someone tell me if the crossover value is the point at which the slope cut-off starts or is it the value where the low-pass and high-pass frequencies meet (or "crossover" I guess).

I am guessing that if I install a 70 HZ module then the signals will crossover at 70 therefore the high-pass signal begins to be attenuated at some point above 70, depending on the slope, and the low-pass begins attenuating at some value below 70.
Thanks to anyone who can confirm this.

General rule of thumb is the the "crossover frequency" is the -3db point. So at 60hz the signal is down 3db. Thus, as both drivers are playing that frequency, the theoretical sum of their outputs is flat.
I would not bother with the AC modules - just buy and insert your own reisitors.
