Post Subject: Passive or active XOing at 1 kHz?Posted by Markus on: 12/22/2007
Very interesting discussion. I have taken a close look at Marco's horns and am thinking about using them in a horn installation. I plan to use the TAD 4003 from, say, 1 to 8 kHz, and a tweeter above that.

I would love to use horns below 1 kHz but will prbably have to do without for space reasons. I'm thinking about the TAD 1102 between 200 Hz and 1 kHz and the JBL 1500AL below that. Doing the 200 Hz crossover properly in passive is almost impossible, so I'm pretty sure I'll use an active crossover, but I haven't decided about the 1 kHz point. Anyone have experience with passive versus active at that frequency?
