DAYTON RS150S-8 6" = 8 ohm
DAYTON DC28FS-8 1-1/8" = 8 ohm
CROSSOVER 2-WAY 3,000 Hz 100W 12 DB
I'm not sure how I should hook them up -- Questions
1. Do I need to look at impedance of the whole MTM at the crossover or exactly how does that work. I've been reading and I can't find any good info. It seems like as long as you use a crossover, it doesn't matter what the impedance of the individual drivers are?
Here is my thinking...I wire up the two Mids in Series to get them at 16 ohms and in parallel to the tweeter at 8 ohms. The total ohms for the MTM will be 12 ohms.
My satelite speakers MT should be at 4 ohms right? M = 8 ohms and T = 4 ohms in parrallel on the crossover.
I'm I going about this all wrong or does the ohms only matter in a certain frequency range? If this is so, should I just hook up the MTM for my Mids in Parrallel?
2. How will my crossovers be affected by the ohm change. It says "A 12 dB per octave high pass filter with your choice of either a 3,000 Hz or 5,000 Hz crossover point" -- Does this mean the 3K is for 4 ohm and the 5K is for 8 ohm? The crossover uses a 100V 4.7mfd NP capacitor and can't find info on the wire wound thingy.
