    croosover building ???

    I am in the process of building my nat P's crossover and need to make sure I am doing it correctly.

    I am going by Opt-e pic. and in some places more than one wire intersect another.
    - Is it ok to conect all at the same place, if not how far apart do they need to be ?
    - the inductors have an inside & outside wire conection, does it matter witch direction it is wired ?
    - is anything directional in this crossover ?

        Opt-e, Your picture along with a couple of others was a great help to me when I built the crossovers for my Nat's. Thank you! :T

            Sometimes it feels like all I do is leech from the forum. With no knowledge of electronics nor experience in woodworking, it's nice to be able to give a little back :T

              I used your posts as a guide when I built my Nat P's with great success due to the clear pics and diagrams

              They really do sound great!

                    As far as I know, this is just fine. But don't take my word for it, I'm a software developer not an electrical engineer ops: 8)

                      If I am interpreting your pic correctly, you have no worries.

                        We're not psychic.... :roll:

                        You reposted Opt-e's picture not a picture of your crossover. And you didn't identify what specific components you're talking about. So it's impossible to know what you did, or it's effects.
