1. Understand The Basics Of Speaker
A typical 3-way speaker looks something like this:
The crossover decides which frequencies go to each driver.
For example:
| Driver | Approximate job |
|---|---|
| Woofer | Bass |
| Midrange | Vocals / instruments |
| Tweeter | High frequencies |
The crossover is made from three major component types:
1. Capacitor – Usually controls/high-passes frequencies
2. Inductor – Usually used for low-pass filtering
3. Resistor – Controls electrical level and damping
2. Don't Upgrade Everything At Once
You may upgrade accordingly
1. Understand the original crossover.
2. Replace a component at a time
3. Test and Listen the differences
4. Decide whether to keep the modification.
