Tomo Posted April 8, 2005 Share Posted April 8, 2005 Something I've always wondered - why is a crossover called a crossover? Given that it's essentially a pair of filters for each channel - one high-pass, one low-pass, what's that got to do with 'crossing over'? Forgive me if it's blindingly obvious, but I never figured it out!(I'm really a lampy, not a noise boy) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paulears Posted April 8, 2005 Share Posted April 8, 2005 If you draw the freq response curve for the hi pass and low pass on the same graph, at some point they cross over as the hf comes up to match the lf dropping off. When someone mentions crossover frequency - this is it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
