[QUOTE="Norval, post: 33660, member: 62"] Hi, that looks like a well build driver for the price Just something to concider imo. If the wavelenghts becomes shorter than the driver diameter the driver becomes very directional. That gives you a max x-over on a 6" of around 2500Hz The x-over slop (6db/oct) means the x-overs atenuate at 6db/oct. An octave is where the frequency either doulbles or halfs. In other words if the spl is 100db at 2000hz and its a high pass filter, then the spl will be 94db at 1000Hz and 88db at 500Hz. 3db = factor 2 6db = factor 4 12db = factor 8 in other words from a power perspective if 100 wats = 100db, then 25 watts will = 94db [/QUOTE]
