Im designing a crossover and I am seeing some pretty low impedance and wondering if I am doing something wrong. I have 2 Satori MW16P-8 and TW29 tweeter. I am seeing a system impedance of just under 3 ohms. see pic.
Note: I am not concerned with optimizing Fr at this point only impedance as I dont want to fry my amp.
Thanks

It will depend on what frequency you are calculating impedance for.
A series LC is a short at its resonant frequency.

If 3 ohms would fry your amp, get a new amp! Most nominal "4 ohm" speakers will have dips that low.
Agreeing with the previous two posters. 3ohm dips are fine.
If you're planning on running at high levels (ie, giving the amp a difficult life), make sure there's plenty of ventilation. Most of the time, you'll probably find you're running at a fraction of a watt.
