Alright, I'll give that a shot.

Reading the FAQ page, passivecrossovers.com, talking to Joey, etc. would be in your best interests before you make any decisions :)

joey has check the 12volt.com for help

Alright, thanks for the headsup on that.

BTW, anyone on here ever build a set of crossovers? It looks like I would need some coils, capacitors, and maybe a few other things. Never had to build my own before, so I truthfully wouldn't know where to start. Gonna look at the link you posted up later on tonight or sometime this weekend, depending if I have the spare time.

Also, I forgot, read Jonathan's post in the FAQ section on midbass drivers and whatnot. It helps with knowing what to look for in pairing drivers.

It'll give you the basics on how they work and how to setup a highpass, lowpass, and bandpass. And like Smoker said, active is also another option.

Peerless makes great stuff for mids, although it might not quite be in your price range. Seas makes some good tweeters that are definately in your price range.
Let us know what you decide.

Making my own crossovers, eh? Got any links on this? I'm up for a challenge!


I've always heard good things about Seas stuff, so I'll keep them in mind when looking for the tweeters.

nope, no bravox here......if it were me id go with either fusion powerplant or autotek and instead of using the supplied crossovers go active
