I have a 3 way I'm playing with at the moment, with a JBL 15" bass, 2" CD on a 2385A horn and a 1"CD on a beyma horn.

xo points : 800Hz, 6kHz (4th order)

I added another 15" driver with a 1st order xo at 150Hz.

I noticed the 0.5way 15 has more treble output than the original one (due to shallower slope)

Is it best to lowpass the 2nd driver at 800Hz before doing the 1st order @ 150Hz ?

I'm using a DCX to xo so maybe just use a passive 1st order on the second driver and run them off the same amp channel ?

Thanks,
Rob.
