Hi @Bill Fitzmaurice Thank you for the link. This will help me a lot.

Thanks @Bill Fitzmaurice @itu and @stevie for your advice. Looks like I will be doing some more sawing!!😁

Hi. Thank you all for your inputs. @stevie I tried bypassing the low filter straight to drivers but still clipping. @Bill Fitzmaurice I did use the WinISD program so probably this is where the fault lies. I have attached a diagram of my cabinet measurements. One thing I didn't build into the cab was a dividing shelf between the 2 drivers! Could this be my problem?. Thanks

Hi Bill Fitzmaurice. Just giving you an update on my crossover progress. So I've been running my bass cab with the crossover unit I built, as in the above photo, for about a year now but for some reason I'm getting a lot of "clipping" on my low notes, most notably on the E string. The amp I use to run the cabs is an Little Mark Tube 500 watts. My speakers are as I explained In my first question to you dated July 23rd. 2023. Do you think it could be the crossover unit causing the "clipping?" Should I try something else? Thanks. Dev

Thank you for your input Stevie. I will try it both ways!

Hi Bill. Before I solder the components on the board, I just wanted to be re-assured that you're happy with this layout. Cheers

I shall obviously use the L Pad to control the tweeter volume. Would I have to get an L Pad rated at 8ohm to match the Eminence BGH25-8 tweeter or 4 ohms to match the woofers?. That is my final question on this matter....I promise!! Thanks

Thank you again Bill

Hi Bill. Just about to order the parts for the crossovers. Would you recommend an L-Pad Attenuator to go with this build or not? And one more question. Is it right that you have to wire one speaker (tweeter) backwards (+ to -) because of 180 degree phase shifting? Thanks

Thank you once again. I will use the same design and components you have given me above for the crossover! Cheers Bill

Hi Bill. So you wouldn't recommend an off the shelf crossover like this example?

Thank you very much Bill for answering my question. Great stuff. I will now look into obtaining all the components needed.

Hi. I am building my own 2 x10" bass cab and used the WinISD programme to design it. I am using 2 x Celestion BN10-300X watts speakers at 8ohms each wired in parallel making the cab 600 watts in total at 4 ohms. My question is, What compression tweeter and crossover unit should I put in my cab to match? Do I need to buy a tweeter that is rated 4 ohms and 600 watts? The same question with the crossover unit. I see a lot of tweeters and crossover units on the market that all seem to be rated at 8 ohms. I will be powering the speakers through a Markbass amp at 500 watts. Thanks in advance!
