I'm building my own enclosures and crossovers and would like to incorporate some method of adjusting the output of my mids and tweeters. Can anyone recommend a quality 8 ohm L-Pad?

Thanks,

A friend used the 16 ohm version of this:

If you want something really nice - and if cost is no object - I'm sure Marchand would be willing to whip something up for you.

Use fixed value resistors ;)

I'm going to test a 3155 CC network with the l-pads removed with 2405/2450 w.Radian 1245/2123H and 2235H.
Room EQ wizard showed a significant drop starting at around 9-10k so I wonder how this will work.

I hadn't thought of that. Use an L-Pad for set up and testing and then replace with fixed value resistors.

Thanks.



Use fixed value resistors ;).
