To understand the very basics of crossover design, this is a fine video.
muchas gracias por tu comentario
This is awesome I really like how you D soldered the components while it was playing not quite what I’m looking for but still a super awesome video thank you so much it’s videos like this that are making people smarter
🙃🙏🙏🙏
I bought premade crossovers and installed them in old speakers, Bose 501 IV and Cerwin Vega D5s. I can hear a big difference especially in the Bose cabinets because I also put in new subs mids and highs.
you have installed new drivers and crossovers in your bose speakers, result = you have created new speakers that sounds good to your ears 😁
@@homemade_audio yep a whole new speaker. Currently listening to them as I type this. Have a good day
@@jorgem50 good job, you welcome 🙏
Excellent project. Thank you for sharing your video 👍

muchas gracias amigo por tu comentario tan favorable, un gran saludo desde tu pais vecino (Marruecos)
Excelente, estaba buscando esto, gracias! saludos desde Colombia.
Nice project but making an inductor using loose wire around a steel bolt will be bad for bass quality because the wire is quite thin and the bolt will store magnetic energy as hysterisis and distorsion. I think your project deserve better in that departement. Good luck!
thanks! would a plastic "bolt" be Best, and what wire would YOU suggest, plz?
@@antoniiocaluso1071 Yes and also aluminium or stainless would do too! If you could find some plastic former it would be excellent because it would be possible to wind your coil more precisely. Bye!
Exellent main frend 🍻

Wow very simplified presentation, How about if two woofers and 1 tweeter? Thanks in advance.
Very Good Project
Super video....

Excellent and useful projects
Thank you, you welcome 🥰
Sir please explain to calculate for various power of crossover
@@Rk-hx9gt first step you have to know the speaker’s frequency response of each of you drivers found in the specifications, then on web you can find many speaker's crossover calculator to calculate values of caps and inductors needed.
For high power you have just to by caps that supports high voltage ( 600-1000v) and inductors based on big wire gauge.
In general the best way is to follow manufacturers recommendations.
For first experience try to make crossover based on recovered parts and try many setup possibilities.
Make crossover isn't easy but possible.
That's really good it's very easy and the way you describe about the capacitor and coil and resistor is to good . If i need any help will you help me sir 😊
Sir if i want to make iron core inductor for 1000 watt sub woofer so what size iron plate should i use 1000 watt 8 ohms
@@emmanuelfernandez3411 for high power it's recommended to use actif crossover more better and safety.
More than with actif crossover you can go more deep in bass frequencies.
Note that this filter is for 8 ohm speakers for 4 ohm doubles values as far as possible not to use polarized capacitors + -
in general, but depending on the type of crossover the values change.
For exemple the values of the capacitors for a 1khz 8ohm high pass filter of the butterworth type are different than those for linkwitz or bessel.
@@homemade_audio I built speakers and audio stations 2 these filters do not merv over 100w you these filters are just pentry house and car
for amateurs and who doesn't have money for professional equipment, it's ok
Thank you king...
Awesome video!
thank you 🙏
Gave it a like for the piano jam
Great video, Very good informative video very simply illustrated without a word.
Wld love to make it oneday myself.
Just wanted to ask what inches n diameter is that screw used
Regards n thanks
10mm screw's diameter is ok
Length wise please....
@@prashantk3269 60mm
Lindo projeto.Parabéns.
Muito obrigado chefe 😁
In your video on two way speaker you had two banana plug sets but in this video only one, is there a reason? Just wondering, I love your videos
What diameter is the screw that acts as a core in millimeters? Very good video, very easy to explain, thank you very much from Argentina
nice layout its so good it looks like a drawing how do you get your wire so straight
Use solid core wire and straighten it out
first thank you for your comment, I use this way of editing in order to better understand.
for the wire it is simply a solid core copper wire.
@@nickblyth166 yes exactly 👍
COULD TELL ME WHAT KIND SPEAKERS AND IT'S SIZE THAT YOU USED HERE?? [i.e: WOOFER, SUB WOOFER, TWIETER]
Simple n easy learning.
🥰🙏🙏🙏
How to calculate inductor and capacitor please tell for high power amplifire
Superb
Thanks much, you welcome 🥰
Great 👍

Sir is there's any particular computation, guide for designing those crossover. I'm interested on designing my own sound system too. Thanks in advance. Your presentation is the best that I've seen.
Thanks much for your cool comments.
Make speakers it's not simple if you want get a flat response.
To get started,I recommend you for first experience to by a complet kit (drivers + crossover) and make the enclosure based on plan given by seller for the kit. To make speaker you will assembly wood, electronics parts, solder wire....
@@homemade_audio yup I really like to do it in a complete set with the manufacturers plan, but its too expensive thats why I'm interested more on DIY projects that I've watched in your channel, sorting all materials that can be use.
@@bengbeng5750 ok. You have to start 😉
Collect parts from old crossover , try to make two way speaker because it's easy for beginners. And the main key is to use mkp capacitor for tweeter + lpad
@@homemade_audio well thanks for the advise, I'll do keep waiting for your next post, thanks more great ideas in the future.
I disagree
The values of the capacitors are a little strange. Going down to the level of 1 microfarad per tweeter is an exaggeration. 4 This is normal. And a woofer can get 36 to 50 microfarads. Anyway I loved your video. I have a bigger problem and it seems that my woofer is knocked out. I have already tried all the capacitor values. And nothing helps. Not interested in investing in new speakers right now
Hello,
The values of any capacitors or inductors on any crossover depends on the values of frequencies cut and drivers used.
I like this
🥰 thanks
Buen video 👍🏻, cómo serían los valores para un bajo y medio de 4ohms??.
You have to calculate it on free web crossover calculator based drivers impedance and frequencies cuts wanted
subscribed i hope there's more like this these will be helpful for my endeavors
somebody told me that when making an inductor there can be no crossing of the wire? they must have been wrong because it sounded wrong but i see you had a few points where the wire crossed over itself, they were saying that it had to be perfectly spiral wound, which didn't make sense because how do you get the next layer with out at least one cross?
It's coated wire, so no shorting. Enameled wire is also called "magnet wire".
As you can hear in the video, you will never get a good result this way !! The bass filter seems to be 12 dB, the midtone 6 dB, but with no cut of treble, and the treble 6 dB.
I used jbl le5 as midrange that can work without high cut, look at jbl 4311 crossover to understand.
There's always different way to use drivers , and it's also possible to use first and second order filter in same speaker and adjust phase physically
I'm a beginner. What is the problem? Should they all be made 12db or 6db or how to cut the treble from midrange if you say it hasn't been done here.
You need a inductor on that mid to filter high tones
Not necessarily. It depends on the frequency response of midrange, for exemple on jbl 4311, jbl l100 there's no low pass filter for midrange crossover section.
The video crossover is very easy for beginners, but soon I'll make advanced crossovers with resistors and Lpad for x drivers.
@@homemade_audio You need it, to add more resistance because of induction so the more signal will go through Hightone speaker.... (You also dont need to add inductance on bass, but you do it because you want to increase inductance in higher frequencies so the signal will go through lower resistance and that will be mid and tweeter)
@@doxzlaborathory you won't add more signal to the tweeter by not adding inductance (even though that's an extremely LoFi solution). You are decreasing the impedance above the highest fs, though.
Necessary to prevent amplifier seeing too low impedance at certain frequencies?
(Speakers in parallel lower impedance)
Very nice👍
شكرا جزيلا. مرحبا بك في قناتي أستاذي🙏🙏🙏
It directly control the frequency output, whats the value of 3 cap, thanks,
The values are mentioned on video.
Great vid!
So if i do like you do but with stronger coil and 450v instad of 100v? I Will be able to run more watt than 100w?
And when do i need resistors?
Yes of course but for strong drivers too,
Resistors are for level control
How much watt will 450v handle? If i use kinda good quality like 20 euro capacitors?
Level control? So you dont play to loud on the tweeter for example?
@@Zombiesmoker about 300watt.
To get flat response, drivers with high sensitivity must connected through resistor to reduce there level to the poor driver 's level.
What uf for 8ohm
26-500hz sub
500-5000hz mid
5000-20khz tweet
Do i use coil togehter with an capacitor? To cutt off the highs first then capacitor to cutt of the lowest hz??
For example coil togehter with low uf capacitor ?
Good 👍👍
what wattage is on those speakers you used in the video, and what is the max watt range you would recommend for the speakers to be using this crossover?
Woofer :75 - 100 Watts
Midrange : 25 - 50W
Tweeter : 10 - 25W
This crossover is designed for home use. It can supports 2*100w amplifier.

Wow idol ok
boss question,
3 speakers subwoofer ,instrumental and tweeter in one box, each one 350WATTS.
how many WATTS is the 3 WAY dividing network that can be used?
thanks and more power
In 3 ways speaker system of 12dB, how to improve a better separation between the woofer and mid?. Separation means to cut-off the mid-bass frequency from the woofer circuit . Should i change of capacitor value ( 15uF to lower value ) or increase the coil turns? .
Less cap value for midrange will make more space between midrange and bass response but that means also that some frequencies will be missing on response!!!
please make explain Active subwoofer board
Si no quiero subwoofer, omito poner los componente para el subwoofer.??
Quiero solo tweeter y woofer..
Los capasitores son apolares, sin polaridad?
Hola buen día
Párese fácil pero si tenes un amplificador de 8ohm y le pones 3 parlantes qye son 8ohm que pasaría con los ohm como quedaría todo
Gracias
Cross over are used for bass improvement of depth sound. I never had luck using the same power from amp to sub woofer.
Subs don't need a very good amp to drive bass.
Mids and tweets need a very good clean amp to sound good. I have 3 amps in my cars to separate base, mids, tweets
Very nice review good
Hola buenas tardes, las especificaciones q pasaste son para parlantes de 8 omhs?
Woofer :75 - 100 Watts
Midrange : 25 - 50W
Tweeter : 10 - 25W
This crossover is designed for home use. It can supports 2*100w amplifier.
quiero armar un divisor de frecuencia, el subwoofer son de 500 watts, medio de 200 watts, y tweeter de 100 watts, funcionaria sin problema? no soy técnico, pero me interesa aprender, gracias por contestar
para potencias altas ponemos capacitores con el mismo microfaro pero con mayor voltaje soportado, por ejemplo 4.7uf 600v en lugar de 4.7uf 250v. para inductores de bobina con grandes secciones con el mismo mH, por ejemplo 1mH 1mm en lugar de 1mH 0.5mh.
If I have a passive woofer with a separate amp do I need anything like this or can I plug the amp in directly to the woofer with a crossover?
I had a question about my bandpass would like to place in my 3 way speaker. The midrange is a 8" RadioShack Fs110Hz. The only info I have on it. The woofer is a 12 full range 50 Hz to 11000Hz, The tweeter is a Morel Cat 378 with 2nd order 2000Hz 5uf Dayton cap with 2.27 h inductor. The mid has a simple 1st order 20uf Polycap. The speaker is front ported like the JBL 100. Any ideas Thanks for the videos
Please share link of sound test song. Is it NCS
Only the 15uf is polarized, the rest is non polar?
Because it's not a mkp capacitor.
Mkp are very expensive than electrolytic one.
In crossover we put mkp in the place where it's on serie. And on parallel we put cheep electrolytic caps.
You can also use non polar electrolytic on parallel no probleme.
But the place where the sound go through the caps (in series) we must put high quality mkp caps to get good result.
What is the reason you put a cap in series with the inductor coil for the subwoofer/midbass ? Is it to create and band pass effect ?
If I want to only use the coil as a low pass filter then I don’t need the cap correct ?
Not on series!! It's on parallel after inductor that's on series!
Your attention plz:
- one inductor on series is a first order low pass filter.
- one inductor on series plus cap on parallel after inductor is a second low pass filter.
4 ohm or 8 speakers , ? you should know everything changes ? Butteworth first order , which formula to use for high pass, low pass, band pass ? Not that easy
Yes i know, 6db/octave 12db.., TS parameters, phase, Qts (bass reflex/ clos/OB), impedance response....
This is just an easy 3way crossover simple for beginners.
@@homemade_audio This may be wrong , but I got a DSO-LF Dayton for the subwoofer and steam through a new chromcast[old no good ] PC into a digital converter to Denon AVR. Got a iphone 7 cheap and room correct the sub, i can go hell louder and it stays crisp depending on the recording of course .
What values at 6 Ohm speakers?
As an electrician I never understod, why people who's soldering, why they don't wrap cables together then apply the hot whatever its called.
I agree with you for the situation you cited. but in my case, the technique that I use to simplify the understanding of crossover making requires me to work like that!!!
it's like soldering a wire into a crossover board.
we must understand the situation before making any false judgment!!!
Can I use 500 watts woffer, 300 watts tweeter
No problem. But for this drivers you'll need high power amp , then the crossover to support high power must have a strong components :
- for capacitors keep the same value of uf but for voltage take 450v or more, for example: 600v 4.7uf instead of 50v 4.7uf.
For coils: 1mm wire instead of 0.2mm wire, and keep the same number of spears.
Another important things! Use drivers with the same sensitivity as possible to get flat response in yor speaker.
Iif not add resistor to the driver who has high sensitivity to reduce his level of sound response.
can you help me build crossovers for a pair of jbl Prx535 driver in working order but the self power amplifier plates is gone. Any help will be appreciated Thank You

Would there be mid and twitter as big as the bass speaker? Im planning to experiment one... 😁
Why? Tweeter and mid are meant to be a lot smaller than bass speaker.
Different in speaker 8" 10 "15 "18 " each speaker are different wattage
Where do I find the parts for a tweeter horn and 8in and 10 in speaker system
The midrange sounded more like a tweeter than the actual tweeter...
Cutoff Frequency of this Crossover?
Hello. Do You know, why is something burning on my Crossover, after I've put another loudspeaker in?
Hello. Change a driver by another different one will Change the response of your speaker, but no risk at all!! What will burn your crossover is the high power from amplifier. Drivers and crossover together are designed for a specific limited power . For that reason speaker's manufacturers recommend power of amplifier to use.
What a link :) Would You pay 499,00euro for this? Used boxes?? 100 meters from me a German neighbour put them on the street. I saw 1 loudspeaker was connected + - - other way around, hmmmm!? GREETZ FROM GERMANY.
