How to Use This Calculator
- Enter Woofer Upper Limit, Tweeter Lower Limit, and Has Midrange (0=No, 1=Yes).
- Review the 2-Way Crossover (Hz) result.
- Use Low-Mid Crossover (3-way) (Hz) and Mid-High Crossover (3-way) (Hz) to inform your decision.
How the result changes with Woofer Upper Limit
| Woofer Upper Limit | 2-Way Crossover |
|---|---|
| 1,090 | 1,279 Hz |
| 3,565 | 2,312 Hz |
| 6,535 | 3,131 Hz |
| 9,010 | 3,676 Hz |
What each input means
- Woofer Upper Limit
- Maximum usable frequency of the woofer driver.
- Tweeter Lower Limit
- Minimum usable frequency of the tweeter driver.
- Has Midrange (0=No, 1=Yes)
- Set to 1 for a 3-way system with a dedicated midrange driver.
How this is calculated
Worked example, using the default values
- Identify Input ParametersWoofer Upper Limit = 4000, Tweeter Lower Limit = 1500, Has Midrange (0=No, 1=Yes) = 0 = 3 input(s) provided
