Crossover Network

WHY DO YOU NEED A CROSSOVER NETWORK?

A well-designed loudspeaker system covers the entire audio spectrum from
20 to 20,000 Hz.  No single speaker covers this entire range, however. 
Speakers are specifically designed to cover only certain portions of the
audio spectrum.  Each speaker sounds best over its predetermined band of
frequencies.

A crossover network divides the audio spectrum into two or more frequency
bands and applies these signals to the appropriate speakers.  This means
each speaker operates only over the frequency range it was designed for.

Your Universal 2-Way Crossover Network has two filter networks.  The low-
pass network electronically channels low frequencies to a woofer and
eliminates high frequencies from the woofer signal path.  The high-pass
network operates much the same way -- it channels high frequencies to a
tweeter and eliminates low frequencies from the tweeter signal path.

The result is a speaker system producing a smooth composite response over
the entire audio range, with each speaker performing at maximum efficiency
over the specific frequency range it was designed for.
