In Reply to: what's the best woofer to tweeter ratio? posted by Bod on April 13, 2000 at 14:51:47:
I generally use the XO frequency needed to protect the tweeter to define the maximum diameter of the woofer. I translate the frequnecy into acoustic wavelength. Knowing that the woofer starts losing dispersion if its diameter exceeds that value, I use that or less.example
the tweeter you want needs a XO > 2.8kHz
the acoustic wavelength is C/f
l = (33080cm/sec)/(2800cyc/sec) = 11.8cm/cyc
\ woofer diameter < 11.8cm
... or a 10cm.
This in turn means via reverse logic that you now can XO upto 3.3kHz & make your tweeter happier
my 2¢ way of doing things anyway
