Three-Element Crossovers

Author: N.H. Crowhurst

More complicated arrangements using triple units

The process of adding components may be continued until there are as many elements or components as desired, although three, as shown here, is usually the limit. Using a greater number of components leads to complications in design, if the response and frequency division are to be correct. The more components used, the more effectively the frequencies are separated; frequencies near crossover point are transmitted more efficiently to the correct unit, and those beyond the crossover point are rejected better.
