My first go at designing a cross over

I can't help but notice that, sometimes you come across a bit TROLL like
If I'm not mistaken, you appear to be the one questioning my character.

It's a common misconception that damping factor is something that can be lost (and can't be reversed). It implies that high source resistance is somehow wrong when it isn't. It's a point worth discussing with the readers of a thread.
 
I'm no where an expert but like everyone said, don't PAD low frequencies due they very high current demands, between damping factor is another animal who many times is miscomprehend and very low backed by real time measurements of how an active spaker behaves over an a passive one in real time A/B comparison, not every small measurement/detail is even listenable by humans IMO, we have limits by nature, like our vision, (8K LOL).

Personally I used to hate 12-dB Passive 2-Way crossovers until listening how good they can sound when correctly designed, the placebo is very strong Regards

Yes, I did ... but please don't play 'word games' with me.
It is a fact that high quality bass drivers in suitable enclosures DO benefit from
low source impedance drive/high damping factor amp. drive. (without inserted series resistance)
This leads to tighter, controlled, lower distortion bass output.
I do not understand an argument regarding this!
PS.
However, as I have mentioned > An "actively assisted port/semi-passive radiator" does require series resistance.
