Stumped by double crossovers!
Has anyone ever wired up front componant speakers that come with 2 crossovers? I'm pretty simple at the best of times but this really has me stumped?
|
What speakers and how do you mean 2 crossovers, 2 total or two per channel?
|
We bought some focal componant speakers and they come with 2 crossovers per side like this, the only way I can see to do it is by wiring the tweeter to the tweeter, the speaker to the speaker (obviously) but what do I do with the others do I bridge them power to power and earth to earth? I'm so confused I've never seen 2 per side before??

One is a hi pass filter for the tweeter (T- & T+), the other is a low pass filter for the woofer (W- & W+)
Just split the speaker wire in the door into 2 with 1 going to the tweeter filter & the other going to the woofer filter |
I have two wires for the tweeter +/- and two wires for the speaker +/- at the moment, where do the wires come from for the input?

Yes going in the doors. There is speaker and tweeter already there standard.
I think I get it now, plug the wires from the standard tweeter into the input +/- on the tweeter crossover New tweeter wires go into tweeter +/- in the tweeter crossover Plug the wires that would normally go to the speaker into the input +/- on the crossover Run new wires from speaker itself to speaker +/- on the other crossover box If that makes any sense what so ever I'll be very surprised but I think I finally get it!!! Thanks for trying to help me |

That sounds about right, the HP filter for the OE tweeters is built into the tweeter unit so the input feed is full range.
