![]() Glass is right, I was just adding to that, it's all in what you're using it for. The vehicle you use is temperamental and also the design of the components within all contribute. The downfall of steeper slopes is that you have more electronics to go through, the efficiency drops because the speakers are getting less power below the crossover point. I never run my sub very hard with movies otherwise the bass overpowers everything I have a TC Sounds LMS- Ultra 5400 18' subwoofer in a 7.3ft 3 ported enclosure after all displacements. Everything has it's benefits and downfalls. Put a 24 db oct crossover in this case, and you get better blending of drivers AND the sub will still play all the way to 100 hz, w/o as much distortion. If you have a shallower slope (say 12 db/oct), the sub will be down 12 db at 200 hz, and 6 db at 150, etc, so the sound wouldn't blend as well as you think it would, plus the distortion would be greater and SQ would lack because of this. Assume you are making a high quality system in your car, you naturally want the sub to play the most it possibly can while still blending in with the front drivers, but the sub you have begins to lose SQ and increases distortion above 100 hz. Also, with tweeters that may be damaged more easily with lower freqs, you need a steeper slope. ![]() If you let it play that high though, you would get a screechy midrange that would detract from the SQ.

Posted on Tuesday, Aug12:44 GMTGlass gave examples of the opposite, subsonic filters for subs that are ported, another a good example is this: suppose you have a component system and the mid is capable of playing to 7 khz (pretty high, but just assume) loudly. ![]()
