I'm building a new center channel.My plans are to lower my present xover(100hz)down to 80hz.After discussing this with a friend some questions arose.
My processor cross's the sub @24db/oct.It crosses the mains A12db/oct.This would be a miss match of my new setup.Should I look for an inline filter @80hz.12db-oct to match the 24db/oct for the sub?Or somehow lower the internal volume of the new center to have an acoustical 12db/oct rolloff @80hz to couple with the 12db/oct electronic crossover in the processor.
Is a match of slopes a desired effect of can I get by with the mismatch.What are the effects of the miss match, phase response? I'm not sure.A little help from the number crunchers
