Hello everyone, I have a question!
Lets say you have a MTM speaker with 4" Drivers. It is in a vented enclosure. The design calls for these speakers to handle 80 Hz and up (below 80 Hz is a sub).
Any reason why you can't put a high-pass filter on the woofers to keep sub-80 Hz signal out of them? Wouldn't a high-pass filter also help prevent the cone from over-excursion when driven below the tuning frequency?

Yes, I do this all the time. It really helps the midrange sound, seems less congestion. It's fun to play with the crossover point and listen to the resulting sound.
no reason at all.
in the old days it was called a sub sonic filter, they worked fantasticly on turntables.
Yes would help protect the drivers.
Might take a few components to get a steep enough filter though.
