Speaker Crossover Help?

What is the role of the resistor in the bass speaker? Will the cutoff frequency be affected when the resistor is cancelled?

answer 2.
0.3mh and 33uf capacitor 3ohm speaker = 1600hz

What is the cutoff frequency for 6.5ohm using the same materials?

:roll_eyes: :roll_eyes: :roll_eyes: interesting

what’s interesting ?

is there anyone who can help ?

The resistor is part of the low pass filter. Yes, the cutoff frequency will be affected if it was removed. If you replace the 3ohm resistor with a 6.5ohm resistor, the cutoff frequency is lowered to ~741hz.

You got multiple segments in one circuit there.

What I find interesting is that this secition:

Is a “reversed” LC-Filter. Normally, the load would be in parallel with the capacitor, not with the inductor.

This here is an LC-Filter with a resistor in series with the Capacitor (like @reikoshea mentioned).

I THINK this is probably a compression tweeter. It’s pretty common to throw a resistor in parallel to drop the power of compression drivers because some will run as much as 6db and 9db hotter than most woofers.

Just a guess though.
