You know someone REALLY understands something when they have the ability to capture the essence in such a concise and engaging manner. Thank you sir, just what I was looking for!
Excellent video and very clear explanation of how a crossover works. Thanks for taking the time to post this up, I am really enjoying these insights into speaker design.
Thanks, John. Excellent explanation of a crossover network, but easier said than done, or at least done well. I’ve really enjoyed your vids, and am so glad you started a channel of your own. Wether it be music recommendations or technical information, it’s all been great, especially from someone as respected as yourself. Please keep your channel going, if times allows, and once again, thank you, John. Be well and stay safe! 🎶👍🔊🙂
Thanks, this gives consumer like me a perspective on what effort was put in to our beloved speakers and that's the gibbon nine for me. Planning to make a youtube sound test of the nines to somewhat show off their magic.
This is the best hifi info on UA-cam. Guttenberg is also great if you need guidance on what to buy, but DeVore explains how things work and I love that. Although I need to watch a couple more times to get all of it.
Thanks John, I appreciate the explanation greatly. I can / do design and build power amplifiers ~ but ~ building speakers is such an art... one that truly escapes me. I appreciate what you do and your stellar reputation as a craftsman...
@@DeVOREFIDELITY John, a little late to this series, but do you intend to do another episode on speaker enclosure tuning that you referenced in the previous video? This series is very helpful and getting a lens into your views on things is awesome. As someone that can’t afford a pair of your speakers at this point in my life, it’s still nice to get a peek behind the curtain.
Xover also prevents parralel frequencies...which prevents drivers wired in parralel being ' seen ' by the amp that way ( prevents huge impedance drop )
would like to hear your thought about impedance corrections since you want speakers to be on the dynamic side of the spectrum. Do you avoid them at all costs? What are your opinions?
A passive crossover is an evil amalgamation of capacitors, inductors, and resistors designed to keep the Hi-Fi industry permanently suspended in the 1970’s. Because Studio Engineers and the Pro Sound industry know how damned good DSP is.
In your speakers, what kind of crossover do you use (Butterworth,Bessel,Linkwitz-Riley),and are they first, second,third or fourth order? Thank you for the reply!
I don't see an issue putting a small value resistor in series yes your changed its impedance but the impedance is changed anyway in the operation of the driver when it's working, what value are you talking about in parallel of the resistor would have to be high?

Wow. New to your channel. This reminds me of the passion me and my friends had from the mid 80s through th mid 90s. Thanks for all this.
We require more knowledge. Please upload #3 in series.
Really happy you are putting these out. You've done such a great job making these concepts clear as well as entertaining. Plus cats....

Really enjoying your vids John, please keep them coming. Stay safe! Thank you.
Another great video! Informative, clear, and fun to watch! Can just echo the request to put more of those out there!
good explaining is an art. This was the best explanation of a crossover circuit ever (for beginners).
Thanks John, I appreciate the explanation greatly. I can / do design and build power amplifiers ~ but ~ building speakers is such an art... one that truly escapes me. I appreciate what you do and your stellar reputation as a craftsman...
Very helpful. Thanks.
Excellent explanation and graphics John! Thx
Great video. Even though I understand the concepts, it’s good to learn from different perspectives and reinforce understanding. Good job!
Thank you sir, much appreciated.
Excellent.
Excellent teaching and education!! Thanks!! Be well!! Cheers!!!
Incredible presentation. Great job , very informative...thanks!!!!
Thanks John
Thank you very much for these lessons.
When will we see #3? Loving your stuff!! 😁😁😁
Thanks. 🙏
Excellent video. Thank you!
Thanks that info was exactly what I needed at this time, perfecto
Perfect.
Great videos man thanks for sharing the knowledge!
You're welcome!

Crossovers good
Use a digital EQ for fine tuning / room correction
Have you ever made headphones ?
I high pass everything.
