Aren't you selling a DSP?

I have a couple of nanoDSPs and some DACS but this seemed like a simpler integrated solution. I have not done a thorough test of it but preliminary tests show that it works as advertised.

I have both unfinished cabinets, all six drivers, rear wire terminals, and some mounting screws. I need to order the rest of the missing parts and try to assemble it.

What is the crossover point?

Re: DIY MTM Tower speakers

Depends on the impedance of the drivers
Probably around 2.349k

Is the resister necessary?

Looking at crossover design and none have the resister.

resistor is probably for matching different drivers.

Doesn't anyone in the group simulate circuits -

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_f ... simulators

If the speakers are from parts express don't they publish the parameters you need to determine the electrical analog of the speaker (electro-acoustic system). Then you could simulate the electrical side of your speakers on your computer. To do the acoustic side you would need a finite element code (free versions available).

It's an MTM - two woofers and one tweeter. Dayton Audio drivers.

It’s time for you to start doing this stuff for yourself. It is the only way to learn. Have to stumble before you fly. The guys here are very generous with their help, but you got to start putting at least one step forward
