Hi Beppe,
unfortunately Tannoys need a bit more then just a plain crossover!
The tweeter, as is normal for compression drivers which cover a wide range, needs some eq to produce a flat response. It needs a wide but shallow notchfilter at around 3kHz to get rid of a slight response peak (I understand Altec have the same problem, they just never addressed it.) and a 6dB/oct boost from 5kHz, pretty much the same as modern constant directivity horns. Tannoy addresses all this within their passive crossover but you will most likely need a parametric equalizer.
The good news is that all this processing is far more precisely done at line level and the results are more then worth it. Stick with it and you will end up with one of the most accurate speakers possible.If you haven't already done so I suggest you join the Tannoy yahoo group
