Hello,

Using the FRC tools I have simulated the response for the Eminence Alpha-8 and APT-80 on a 10x20 baffle, and designed two crossovers: 1st/3rd order, and 2nd/2nd order. Although the frequency response is similar for both I was wondering if there is anybody here who can predict the difference in sound for both designs?

Thx, Thomas

Xover A - 1st order low pass, 3rd order high pass:
