G'day All,
I've completed my Nelson Pass crossovers and installed them into the speakers with pleasing results.
I do however have a little issue with the 'warmth' of the sound (please dont start having a go at me for describing sound with words... there just isnt another way in this post :-p), which got me to wondering...
The Nelson pass design for the midrange driver specified an 8 Ohm Lpad rather than the JBL standard crossovers 16 Ohm. (3133 equiv. circuit).
Also - I'm unsure of the impedence of the components in these boxes as they've been around quite a while... How can I simply find the impedence of each driver?... Can I just look at their resistance and estimate from there?
I'd really like to confirm that my impedences are wrong because that would explain the sound to me, and give me a path to resolve the issue.
Oh - also - What should the impedences of each driver using the Nelson Pass crossover be?
Thanks for listening - Any advice appreciated (outside of 'Go Active') :-) Thanks
Pauly
