How To Install A Capacitor As A Crossover
Вставка
- Опубліковано 22 лют 2014
- This video shows you a very easy and inexpensive way to install a capacitor as a crossover. These capacitors eliminate unwanted bass to your high and mid range speakers. This helps from blowing your speakers and also it makes your speaker system sound better.
Good to hear someone from America explain this👍
thank you. a simple demonstration is much easier than tech jargon
thank you , i just learned something today and I will be using your info for my new midranges thank you
6.8 mf cap is best for med drivers in 3-way speakers (that have a woofer, a med driver and a tweeter). 6.8 mf caps are just about what all 3-way speakers have on the med driver. They make such a sharp and snappy voice sound. If it's a 2 way speaker (with just a woofer and a tweeter) don't put a cap on your woofer. Only on a med driver that runs with a woofer (like in the 3-way speakers).
Very well explained, leaving out all the unnecessary crap and getting to the point!
I did this years ago in early 1970s when sampling for high frequencies hooking up horn tweeters and mid ranges to see what sounded best so I could replace the caps in the crossover
Great vid, thanks for showing the difference in capacitors and how to hook them up.
Thanks sir, I try to find such a video for many days as I am going to prepare speaker enclosures by my own.
dear lord thank you so much! that was exactly what i needed to know!
great video...recently purchased a few pioneer pro 4" tweeters and they had a capacitor attached to them and I've never had a set with them attached so i had no idea until now on how to hook them up, thanks...
Great demo of how a capacitor works
Love the song choice for the demonstration ;)
nice video man. i used this video as my guide video to solder my speakers. hanks man. one question what 2pac song you playing in this video ? that song banging man. 2pac fan :D
Thanks I 9rdered a pair of really loud super tweeters and they came with this installed already and I had no idea wth it was or was for or even how to hook it up since I've never used them before.
Thanks for this video
Do I need to install a crossover in we have capacitor?
Also, how to chose the right capacitor size?
Also, should I install anything else, such as resistor or another capacitor?
What about removing the treble
In this video you show how to remove the base by installing a capacitor in the positive terminal. What is you didn't want to remove the bass, but instead wanted to keep it and remove all the mid range and highs from the audio signal? What would you do to it then?

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Low-pass_filter You can just place the capacitor across the positive and negative of the speaker
@@codyphillips1279
No, NEVER do that! Your cap will be a dead short in the higher frequencies and might blow up or damage the amp. Only a coil is a low pass filter. If you use a coil, you can combine it with a well calculated parallel capacitor to the woofer to make the coil's filtering slope more steep (-12db instead of -6db/oct).
Hi great idea and tell me it work with 6×9 600w speaker and what capacitor I can use
I wonder what capacitor works for what frequency cutoff?
I remember using caps on bass guitar pickups, and 4,7uF gives a nice warm tone.
On car tweeters, it would be nice to install a cap that cuts frequencies below 2,3, or 4kHz.
Do you have a full video of building speaker box ?
Wow, for such a crappy video, this explained and showed exactly what was going on and how the capacitors are working with your drivers. Nice job!
Why are there so many dislikes? Great job, man.
Because the title says how to install and not why to install. Can't say its a how to video and not actually show how to do anything. I didn't dislike it because the info was helpful however the thought that it didn't show you how to do anything did cross my mind.
@@HakeemKaree hhhhhhhhhhhhh
Song name?
will you make a simple crossover which will cut mids from a subwoofer?
Thank you
ServiceBro I really need your help in a crossover with a 4in, 20-40w, 6ohm woofer, and a 2in 15-30w 8ohm woofer. These two woofers are installed in my Bluetooth speaker but the 2-inch woofer clips whenever I turn the volume at 60% on my pc using aux cable. So what kind of capacitor should I get?
i want to boost my bass frequences....how i can this?(without a woofer speaker)....
+ΔΗΜΗΤΡΗΣ ΜΑΡΤΙΝΟΣ You need a mini dsp
Can I use the capacitor for both speakers and the twitter in other to separate the high from low
Hello friend, I made USB speaker at home by using PMA8403 amplifier but problem is that the bass of speaker is so low , please tell me what can i do for increasing bass of my speaker ...... .
is there a difference if you have a 4 ohm or 2 ohm speaker ? does wattage come into play ? thx
Hi mate, I've installed a sub bridges to a 2 channel amp and mid range to original stereo harness, if I'm after linking speaker up to amp as a tri way would this in theory act as a crossover and keep the speakers alive?
aside from amplifier, crossover is needed for a good audio autpot?
does it also cut TREBLE or just the bass....
So basically, small capacitance less bass bigger capacitance more bass is that correct? So how do you determine what capacitor resistance to start with?
Need videos
Without getting too technical, what is a good "size" capacitor to use on a 2in speaker? Not a tweeter, a speaker.
@Dan Lapain Yeah I ended up jus tordering a bunch off of ebay with different specs to test up and down. with different size speakers/tweeters.
So I'll also have to touch to sense the heat or what am I supposed to look for other than sound?
can this capacitor stand for the 750 rms pa if i play all nigt long and wont damage the mid range speakers.
+Abadon lucif Old post but if anyone reads it, you need more than 2500watts to exceed a 100v cap on a 4 ohm speaker.
Which microfarad(uf) I need to cut off anything under 2Khz tweeters?
if i have 15' 150watts speaker 8ohms and i want it to have a super bass what value of inductor and capacitor i need ?
How do you determine exactly what you need for a crossover network? Any recommended websites? UA-cam is useless.
thanx
what will happen if I use 60uf and 330V capacitor for 20W speaker??
Why do some bass blockers state 50 volt or 100 volt?
thanks
Does the voltage matter
what's the orientation of the capacitor? It has negative and positive side, right? Where will you connect the positive side of the capacitor?Thanks.
+Lawrence Corcuera These are non-polarized audio capacitors. So you do not have to worry about positive and negative polarity. If you want any more audio tips, check out my channel. I already have a few and will be making a video similar to this soon.
I have a speaker 500 wat 4 ohm with capacitor I must use
Does it work for 8ohm tweeters???
how many watts is your speaker?
Thanks for the video👍
Can you do this in a sub woofer so that it will play the bass and not the highs? Thanks.
You need a resistor and not a capacitor for that.
You need a resistor and a coil (inductor) a big inductor
put a cap between the positive and negative of the speaker yo!, and you get almost a low pass filter
What type of capacitor is perfect for my speaker i used it on my car thnx mate!!?
john bryan haber yjijk
Can you use a capacitor to make a crossover on a woofer to cut out te higher frequencies? I have one woofer input that has a crossover but I have three woofer that get distorted sound due to no crossover. What would be the capacitors details if possible?
Jason Houston what kind of amp do you have the woofers on
Ok
You should use a low pass filter. There is a chanel caled afrotekmods witch explains it very well
yes of course
you can
just connect a 100uf
capacitor to the woofer
this will remove all higher frequencies except for bass
and the voltage of the capacitor should be higher than your amp output
usually 250v-300v will work fine
Ali Waqas A capacitor is a hi pass filter, no low pass filter, you need a inductor to cut hi frecuemcies.
i have ready made factory crossover there are not any wattage in or out how to fine out the wattage it can take
check your drivers, it doesn't matter, just check cap labels
i have to 40w speakers 4 ohm btw and i want them to play above 200hz what do i need?
and a sub 210w i want that to play with these speakers so i think under 250hz or something like that what do i need for that?
i realy need some help for this
150 uF bipolar capacitor and 2.7mh coil. (slope= 6dbs/oct.)
How can I attach the battery capacitor to the wire I do not want it to touch directly onto my tweeter as it will cause damage
Lol what? There should be no battery. If you're talking about a car amp and the power wire. You cannot put it there you'll electrocute yourself and prob burn your car down.
Big difference
If you are using a 22uf 100v capacitor? Does the voice stand out better?
no, you have to balance the crossover with an inductor and a capacitor together, i would use a 16uf cap and a good fat inductor as well
Hi Bro.. i have two 1300 watts subwoofer, what size of capacitor can i use?thanks..
+Marcus Abacus Why would you want to cut out the bass to your subwoofer? Thats just dumb....
+[SMJ]StretchMyJerky He's probably talking about the other type of capacitor. Totally wrong video to be watching, but 1-2 Farad caps per 1000w should be perfect.
+Marcus Abacus for a subwoofer i recomend using a crossover network not just one cap
what if I have a cross over,we need to put a capacitor or not?
Hnd na ginagamit lang ang capacitor sa pagfilter ng base sa mid at twet peru sa sub gagamit ka ng dividing network para mas buo ang base.
Cute speaker!!

Do capacitors hold electricity? Like, could you shock yourself by touching a capacitor?
only if it is a very big one
Yes. Even with a small one. Theyre surprisingly dangerous. Don't listen to the guy below me.
no, it has to be at high voltage
@Kevin De melo What's your parents email/phone number? You clearly don't need a soldering iron, and probably don't own any real audio equipment
Will a 50v 10uf capacitor work?
+Charles Huot-Goubel i dont need any help anymore, i got a real crossover instead, but thanks anyway:)
No one has told yet in whole you tube and google, which side of the capacitor, I mean positive or negative should be connected with the speaker positive point ...........i am talking about polorized capacitor, I know in the unpolorised you can connect any one but what about polorised capicitor...........
good point and i would think the white line on the capacitor should be on the negative side as usual. So Positive + to + of Capacitor, Anode (-) of Capacitor to the First Positive + terminal of the speaker....then the Ground or Negative - speaker just returns to head unit
what if you want more bass?
+Czaric Official get a woofer or a speaker with a lower Fs.
+Czaric Official You can use capacitors as a high pass, which will be needed if you have a ported sub. This protects your sub from over excursion.
what song was that
juan lopez hvjv bn
i start getting nervous when someone says U F instead of microfarad.
Go cry to your mom
@@patrickrosington1174 hhhhhhhhhhhhh
to my video iconnect 63v 100uf in paralel
i dont see any installation. w/e.
how to know which is + and -
Rahil Shaikh on a speaker? take a AA battery for example, and connect + and - from a battery to the speaker terminals. if a speaker moves forward, then the battery + and - are the same as the speaker. if the speaker moves in and not forward out. that means that the battery + is connected to speakers - terminal, and battery - is connected to speakers + terminal, witch is wrong. hope it helps.
On a electrolytic capacitors there is a stripe or a stripe with the - negative symbol that's the negative side and the other side is + positive make sure u have the polarity correct and the power dose not exceed the capacitors marking otherwise it will blow up
+Rahil Shaikh Typically there are 2 easy ways to d this. Typically the speaker will have a + or - on it or one connection will be colored. If it is colored red, it is positive.
Second, if there are two different sized terminals, the smaller terminal is the negative.
+91rickstar Audio capacitors are non-polarized. You do not want to use polarized for this type of application.
Good info but the video didn't actually show how to install the capacitor
Take a cap with 1000 uF and then u have LF to ur sub pr woofer
Or higher than 1000uF like 3300 uF
and I want high frequency
A bit late to respond (just saw your comment). If you have 2-way or 3-way speakers (and want more high frequency) put a 0.33 uf inductor in series with a 2 ohm resistor on the + terminal of the woofer. Do it even if your speaker have a crossover, and it won't change the speakers much, just more highs (at the expense of about 1db less sensitivity). Not even noticeable, you only turn it up like less than one click to get the same volume. But the highs are still the original volume so now the highs are stronger. You may be able to just use the 2 ohm resistor, but if it sounds cold, use the inductor as it will warm up the sound (and still have more highs).
the "U" stands for micro so "UF" means micro farad
no its ultra farad

I'm Joking Lol
please reply me
It sounds shit with and without ....
That's cuz you don't understand how speakers work
It's not "uF", it's micro farad. "μ" is not the same "u", it is the Greek letter mu which denotes micro. The "F" stands for farad, which is a unit of capacitance. You should learn the proper terminology. Work on it.
Thank you
