Hi guys,
I need help with choice or terminology of speaker crossover parts.
I have all the drivers, capacitors, coils and resistors.
The crossover will be quite complex so I want to figure out layering and connections between the components. It will by trial and error, thus I want to avoid much soldering at first stage.
Can not find anything useful on internet as I am not using proper terms.
I want to connect wires to wires - multiple or single “input” wires to one or more “output” wires.
Initially I had an idea of grouping of cheap russian PETP capacitors (I bought already) instead of using single high value (15,33,56,220 and 600uF) expensive PE caps.
At the end, I also bough those higher value caps in form of bipolar caps, so that will be first step, and maybe sufficient.
There should be some kind of buses/ rails available to connect more caps/ components into one output..
Thank you for the suggestions.

This was posted by XRK971 in a thread about baffle step. Maybe what you are looking for.
25 piece kit for $14 is enough to build just about any XO.

Thank you guys! I found the way how to use terminal blocks to connect multiple caps, that would be fine I think. Then I will use those solder tag strips at final board. The Wago connector seems to be another interesting choice. I also found brass earth stud terminals, those could help too. The link on Troels Gravesen web site was also useful. Thank you!
