Greetings,
What are the driver "lookback" impedance curves in XSim? What is most important about them? Is there a threshold value than needs to be held, or does it point to issues with the crossover?
Thanks!
Neil

It's the impedance of the filter, you will get the same result by removing the driver and shorting the filter output to ground, err...looping the filter output back to the amp.
Okay, that is good to know, thank you.
So, is that filter impedance on its own, something that matters in terms of the speaker load on the amp? I would think that since by definition, the amp is powering the driver and the filter together - it is the speaker's impedance as a whole - that matters?

So, it doesn't matter (much/at all) to the speaker / amp performance? If that's what you're saying, then that makes sense to me - the speaker's overall impedance minimum & nominal values are what matter, as far as I can tell.
