The main aspect that prevents me from doing the DYI is the soldering. My experiences in the past with soldering has been it's way harder than it looks to do it well, and I always ended up very frustrated.

Soo the speaker wires feeding the speaker should be specific 24 interwoven cables (for interference) going into 50 dollar (or so, up charge) special barrel connector for the best signal path. Then when it comes to the crossover, just twist that crap together. Haha I love it. By the way, I made the mistake to disassembling, what I thought was a good set of Boston acoustics, they are now going in the trash, I can’t unsee it now. That stuff looks like trash compared to these components

lots of good info here!

This is the first time seen how a crossover is put together. Excellent video thanks Danny

Danny, it would be awesome to see a close up tutorial on how you combine multiple crossover components to get those nice tight connections. I was a little concerned about pulling the capacitor and resistor wires too tight and damaging them somehow when I made my crossover. Also, once 2 or 3 components are connected together and that group is fairly thick, how to add another for ground (or whatever).

Hey Danny, I'm getting ready to do my AV/3s and wanted to get an idea of how I should proceed with the XO. Love all your videos as they are helpful. I kind of would like to show off the XO, perhaps put into a separate chamber. Would it be ok to hide the wires behind the board and show off the components on the front of the XO board? Or should I not do that? Also cable length from XO to speakers, if a bit longer is that a problem?

Hey Danny....yet another awesome video from you as always. I know you have put together the crossover components hundreds of times and you can do this with your eyes closed :) ...but for some of us out here who are new to this still struggle to "join the dots" properly. It would have been nice if you can properly show the circuit schematic which clearly shows the connections marked. (What you are currently showing in the video seems a little hard to figure out and provides just a vague schematic view...would've been great if you showed that in full frame so that people can pause and view) Also I see that you have added some new components (KPCU capacitors?) in addition to the standard X-LS Encore kit offered and that seems to have added the confusion a bit.

Danny, a friend of mine who knows a lot more about building circuits than I do had the following comments. Could you please comment and confirm whether I need to address any of his comments.

Recommend you keep them off the board for airflow and away from other components and not have them held by zip ties, he is thinking they may generate 5W or so (2) To use sandpaper and strip the ends of the inductor till the copper shows. Thanks. (BTW, hearing you comment about how the bypass caps take things to the next level. I did go ahead and order them. Being a novice took me a while to find them on the web at sonic craft and order them. Recommend you adding them as another orderable option on your site.) Given all the hours I have put into building the kit I am perfectly willing to spend another eighty dollars on the cap if that will take things to another level.)

Foil inductors are a slight upgrade. And the Miflex Copper caps are $20 each.

IS the miflex cap and resistor at end of board run parallel to tweeter inductor and what value is the bypass cap on series Sonicap?

So if I order the kit with all possible upgrades, will my crossover look like this? Are all of the required parts available at this time?

I've built a few sets of speakers over the years, and I always learned to plop the crossover components down into silicone. It lasts forever, and reduces mechanical shifting and rattling noise from the components. Can you weigh in on this? I also assembled high-end amps for a niche manufacturer, and they had me put everything down into silicone for the same reason.

Do you put any protection on any of your crossovers? PTCs, Fuses, breakers or heaters, lol? I see many larger speakers have protection like PTCs on mid and tweeter. Is it a bad idea to eliminate them from the design in a crossover rebuild?

Danny, you're a handsome guy but I'd prefer a closeup of your handiwork vs the room shot. "It may be simple" but I still have no idea what you've done because the board is so distant. later the closeup has your hand is in focus but not the board. grrrrr.

Danny, what’s your general rule for bypass cap values? Is there a mathematical way you personally figure out the bypass cap’s value that it’s in parallel with, or does it depend on how much you wanna smooth out the highs?

@dannyrichie9743

4 жыл бұрын

Anytime you bundle caps of dissimilar values there is a difference in the charge and discharge rates and that difference can cause a phase shift or time smear. But with cap values of .1uF or less that phase shift is at or above 20kHz. So it is not a problem. So you get the benefit of the faster discharging small cap without the penalties. Going smaller than .1uF gives up a little of the flavor or sound of the by-pass cap. So I tend to like the .1's.

What make are those red air core inductors?

Soon I will be ordering these but crossover assembly is still an area of hesitation. If I am right, resistors and capacitors can have either lead be the input or output so directionality doesn't matter. I get that maybe you may want to have the input be on the left as you read the text on it but not required. But is that not true for the inductors? Does't the center lead or outside lead have to be connected in a particular way? How doe the schematic indicate if an element (cap/resitor) should connect to the center or outside?
