3 way frequency overlap question...

fergiedrums · 18th October 2011, 01:27 PM

Hi,
I'm building a 3 way battery powered mobile system, and efficiency, volume and quality is the main goal. I'm eyeing up beyma full range 12ga50's for the middle for their high sensitivity, either 15" or 18" sub, and my question is about whether or not I could use a pair of kappa infinity car speakers on top to fill out the high frequencies.

With the two sets of full range speakers there would be a lot of frequency overlap, is this a problem?

I am a first time builder, what do you think?

Thanks

When you cross them over you will no longer have the overlap so if these are the drivers you want, it should be ok.
