Am I hooking up the crossover correctly???Yes.


Also is there any mods that could be done to the crossover?Keep the HF Boost on "Min." Though I've never measured it, I believe the boost contour is wrong for the ring radiators. 3110A is more suited for use in two-ways without a UHF driver. I use 3110 for three-way with 3105; no boost in it.

I'd build new from scratch before I'd attempt any mods to those crossovers....

So you would keep the same type of crossover but just rebuild it the same and use all new components?

Thanks again.

There's bigger improvements to be achieved by swapping in H92 horns and a different UHF driver, tho. That's where I'd be going first, THEN choose an optimized crossover for the final configuration....
