In looking over your crossover document I'm a little confused by your choice of parts for the attenuator. Your diagram shows R1=16 and R2=25 ohms for 12db attenuation but for an 8 ohm crossover I would use 6 ohms and 2.68 ohms instead. I would also reverse the order of them, putting the parallel resistor closest to the tweeter. It looks like what you have will load the crossover improperly like having a 16 ohm driver on an 8 ohm crosover. What gives?
