i just 'finished' my first diy speaker project, but it didn't turn out as expected. i went with the zaph zrt 2-way kit from madisound, with pre-assembled crossovers. After hooking everything up, there was only sound coming from the tweeter, but no sound at all coming from both speakers' woofers. Like the XO wasn't working.
I'm using an external XO box.
All wiring is either canare quad 4s8 / 4s11. Each speaker is connected to the XO box by 4 pole speakons with female speakon (2m) cables connecting them together. Tweeter terminals have quick connects; woofer terminals are soldered.
I was wondering if it could be my poor soldering skills that caused a cold joint somewhere, but i checked all the joints at least 9 times.
I have a feeling i wired up the crossover connections wrongly. I sure hope it is, or else i wouldn't know what else to do. Can anyone take a look and tell me what i'm doing wrongly please? I really appreciate any help i can get. Hopefully i didn't blow up a woofer or something
