I am in the middle of building a two-way speaker using all Dayton components from Parts Express. Two 5" woofers {p#RS125-4}, one 1 1/8" tweeter {p#DC28F-8}, and a two-way crossover {p#XO2W-4.5K}. First question is there a better choice for a crossover for this combo? Should a crossover be around 3K or so for the speakers used? Next question is should I try to keep frequencies below 100Hz from going thru the 5" woofer and if so what is the best means of doing so while still using the Dayton crossover. I will be running a powered sub with the speakers and do not need the 5" to play below 100Hz. Maybe a 10uF to 20uF cap between the crossover and the woofer (on the + side) would solve this problem. Would the cap mess up the crossover I am already using? Any help would be appperciated.
