hello everyone
I bought volt vm752 unit, and now I have Morel tweeter, model tsct1104. And scan speaker woofer, model 32W / 8878. It adopts closed box.
I intend to adopt a 4-way design. I want to add a bm2500 10 inch speaker between vm752 and 8878. How should I use which distribution point? 80-1200hz？ 80-800HZ？ 80-500HZ？ 80-400HZ？
In addition, I found that bm2500 has many models. Which model should I use?
Thank you for your comments and attention

^^ I LOL'd. This is one of my pet hates. Ask for help and expect people to know what piece of kit you're talking about and expect us to work it out and find the data. Let alone what the intended use of the speaker is going to be an wanted performance criteria.
well, for the SS 32W it sais: Frequency Response 20 to 150 Hz
The 3" dome is usable from 5-600 Hz
And you want to 'fill the dip' with a 10"...
I'm not used to this size of drivers, those are monsters!
Let's see the sensitivity data: the 4 Ω subwoofer stands at 90 dB/w/m
The dome mid is fairly efficient: about 95 dB
So you need some efficient midbass

Looking at the Pro speakers area, I see some 6 and 8" ( 10" is big, but it may fit) in the 95-97 dB sensitivity variety.
Something like the B&C 8MDN51 ?? Perhaps a bit limited under 200 Hz...
But there are many others; it depends whether you're going active with filtering or passive.

Both are woofers with relative high excursion > pronounced roll suspension > a little diffraction happens at the edges.
I'd choose an inverted roll surround, if exists, or the pleated paper pro midwoofers which don't have the problem - well, it happens at basket-step!

The Scanspeak 32W/8878 should have no problem meeting with the Volt dome at 500 - 600Hz. It has a good quality motor making it suitable for use as a woofer and I feel it will be wasted doing subwoofer duty below 120Hz or so. Rather build a 3-way and if you still need lower bass select a big high excursion subwoofer that goes very low, like below 50 or so.
My comment was self explanatory. Want help? Don't expect others to look up the parts you're referring to, include links. Also include the expected performance parameters of your project, for example that you're going active.
