Can you explain the purpose and effect of the 16 ohm resistor accross the Vifa dx25 in the new vwersion of the Studio 2 pi? What would happen without this resistor? Thank you.
Re: Purpose/effect of resistor across dx25.
It's a damping resistor. It's purpose is to damp the resonant circuit formed by the crossover capacitor and the tweeter's voice coil.
