Jumper interaction with 3 way speaker


Hi, I wonder how the crossover interacts in a 3 way loudspeaker, when using a jumper? Will the sound coming from the jumper also be sent a little to the midrange and more to the tweeter? Will the signature of the materials used (example: Silver-copper) in the jumper also influence the sound of the entire 3-way speaker, tweeter-midrange-bass?

  • "bass is considered omni directional and we tend to think of bass as only the lower frequencies.
  • but bass has many harmonics associated to it, many of which are outside the range of the low frequncy cut off point of the crossover
  • so improving the focus of the upper frequncies also improves the focus of the bass harmonics, which can now be heard more clearly
  • resulting in a more detailed and pleasing bass performance."
  • That's what I had experimented, it is like the instruments float in the air, music not coming from the speakers.  Thank you for your expertise and good explanations.

 

williewonka.  I have noticed that the bass is also improved, even though my new jumper OCC Copper and OCC silver go to the HF.  I really dont know why ?  The sound stage and precision are also getting better.
