Hi,
Terrible choice of a x/o for those drivers, and not
a good combination of drivers, unless you want
a really complicated x/o, have a look at :
Dayton Reference RS225
How do you intend to design the TL enclosures ?
rgds, sreten.
8" 2 ways are pretty thin on the ground nowadays, and
a metal bassmid makes things about ten time harder.

Umm look at what lol after that the message ended umm I don't know really much about home audio it's a whole different beast than car audio
Ya any suggestions on tweeter, woofer, and c/o combo keep in mine I got ripped off on my receiver and the sub out rca does not work may possibly just be in need of resolver I havnt cracked it open but everything works fine and as for quite some time sorry I'm a talker but with the receiver having no rca out for sub that I would want a decent low end from. My fronts this is for a 5.1 channel setup. I need satellites and center too but I'll tackle that later

So, it's complicated but all the work is done already in the RS duets if the OP finds them suitable. The main point is they perform well.

Hi,
Like I said, for a RS225-8 two way, the x/o is complicated.
Your quite right, home audio is very different to car audio.
rgds, sreten.
What Is the component I need for the cross over and is this fairly easy to make crossovers I usually only solder wires together I don't like circuit board they are too tiny and cramped
Is that box transmission line of it is obviously is probably a double fold of axis port but what is the quarter wave set at
Would the port being off axis make a difference & on sound or are a majority of the frequencies under 80hz so they are are like bass note and it isn't directional sound waves
Also I joined this fourm today haha so how do I like photos from my iPad so you can see them I was using a calculator from online and have the results in my camera roll

I'd build the design Paul posted (if I recall things correctly, Mark K was involved in the filter design there). You will probably not even get close to that quality if you go out on your own. As to combining 8" woofers with 1" tweeters, once there was a time... Take notice that such designs suffer from a power dip in the 1 to 2kHz region. That may be beneficial or bad, depending on what room you are using.
I am curious about the circumstances that might make it beneficial?As to combining 8" woofers with 1" tweeters, once there was a time... Take notice that such designs suffer from a power dip in the 1 to 2kHz region. That may be beneficial or bad, depending on what room you are using.
In the (unlikely?) event of a listening room with acoustic very hard boundaries considered at mid frequencies a lack of off-axis response reduces reflected sound.I am curious about the circumstances that might make it beneficial?
There's also a speaker involved effect: when using a narrow dispersing tweeter (horn) the increasing directivity of a relatively large mid unit matches this horn better than a small cone.
It seems you've decided on the line's configuration and dimensions without regard to what the woofer would require. You need to choose the woofer, then design the line to work with that woofer for optimum results. If you're interested in the RS duets send me a private email with your email address and I'll send you a writeup.

So I was thinking about 80 inches long for the port and also would I want to use poly fill or something in the enclosure or just leave it I heard you have to build the poly fill into the design too
