Also a capacitor in series in the HF driver path (post amplifier) with a value that begins roll off 1 octave below the intended XO frequency is an inexpensive safety device that can save much expense and headache when something goes wrong with the HF amplifier or it's incoming signal.
In Pro sound this practice is fast disappearing. Most modern amps have protection. Using a series cap will wipe out the amplifier's damping ability. This can actually in some cases cause more driver failures than not having the cap would.
With an old amp, I might still use the cap. I just wanted everyone to be aware, there are changing opinions on this, it used to be standard recommended practice.
EAW and JBL recommend no cap."
id prefer to leave it out (with digital active xo) , most i might do is a 6.8 uf MKP on the output of the digital source. Also , since my source is computer, Im going to use an automute with treshold, that runs on startup somehow,
-Please share your opinion.
