The benefit of using an active crossover is eliminating the passive components (crossover) between the amp and the driver. Since those speakers don't have a crossover I don't see any benefit in adding an active crossover to the signal path, and if you do it why use 2 different speakers that have the same frequency range when Gallo says one sounds better than the other?
Making active speakers with 4 Gallo A'Divas
In the process of researching new speakers for my office I've read about the benefits of active speakers over passive speakers. It came to me that I could use 4 Gallo A'Divas, controlled by an active crossover, and powered by two ROTH MC4s, to create 2-way active speakers.
A'Diva as the mid/bass and A'Diva Ti as the mid/treble. A subwoofer would take everything from 120hz down. My question is...how do I determine the best crossover point? Most speakers seem to cross the mid/treble between 1.7k and 2.2k. With full-range speakers I imagine it could be anywhere. I'm just thinking of how to make them produce the same volume/workload, so they blend well.
Any ideas?
What's a good inexpensive crossover?
Thanks!
