Default What's your view of speaker crossovers?

You should also know that the full-range driver is in fact a myth. They

Hi Don - yes, the majority are as above, but I'm talking single cone
here.



I would also disagree with Don's statement, especially if you take the
umpteen million single cone/FR drivers that are used worldwide in radios,
TVs, cars &c. - I certainly have single cone Visaton drivers on the go here
myself...


Well, those umpteen million single cone drivers in TVs and radios are
anything but FR - they pretty much universally have no bass and no
treble.

Which Visatons do you have again? I've just looked at their web site,
and everything I can find has a separate treble unit of one sort or
another in the middle of the bass cone.
