Protection capacitor compensation?
Most of us are using a protection capacitor in front of our tweeters or mid-drivers to protect from amp spikes or other dangerous signals when we use active crossovers.
As a capacitor always will shift the signal 90 degrees there will be a difference in phase between the woofer and the protected mid/high driver.
Now, is that audible or measurable?
The newer digital filters (BSS, JBL, Behringer, DBX…) gives the option to apply shift phase for each driver in an active setup so my question is;
Is it any good to apply 90 degrees phase shift on the drivers without the capacitor to restore phase coherence?
Any thoughts?
