fdewalque Posted March 1, 2009 Share Posted March 1, 2009 Hi every body, some one asked me to give the xover info I've mesured all components with precision material on two pairs . only for info !!!! do not copy ! François. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest " " Posted March 1, 2009 Share Posted March 1, 2009 are you sure about the phasing of the mid driver and tweeter (+ -).... I think you need at least a third order filter before things get 180 degree out of phase... The mid does not look 3rd order...yet you show it out of phase... The tweeter is 3rd order...yet you show it connected normally... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fdewalque Posted March 2, 2009 Author Share Posted March 2, 2009 no i' m not sure but it is connected like that in the two pairs ... I tryed to connect reverse and it is not better . but i'm sure it is originaly done in that sense ... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi fdewalque The polarity orientation of the drivers is not just dependent on the crossover filters but also includes the drivers (frequency dependent) phase behavior and physical location of all the drivers in relation to the chosen listening/measurement locations to optimize the frequency/phase response throughout the crossover regions. I believe it would be wise to trust Klipsch to choose the proper orientation of the drivers polarity with their driver/network/cabinet design since all of this would have been taken into account. mike tn[] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fdewalque Posted March 3, 2009 Author Share Posted March 3, 2009 I agree !!! did not say that it was wrong . you are right. I tried reverse just because I allways try everything [] my eyes can see a thin red line on the wires to show phase plug and my ears can recognise easily wrong phase ... that's all but is it wrong marking or not the result is correct I tried all possibitilies with my digital xoxer and got the same result! and of course I trust Klipsch ... but the principal thing is the components values I give in that post thanks François Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lorcoll Posted March 5, 2009 Share Posted March 5, 2009 Are those caps a polypropylene type or other? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deang Posted March 6, 2009 Share Posted March 6, 2009 I believe they're Mylars. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lorcoll Posted March 7, 2009 Share Posted March 7, 2009 So, these are mylars. Are the mylars the same thing of polyester? What is the sonic signature of these caps? Why Klipsch don't use polypropylene? No air core inductors too. Perhaps have I to reinstall the polyester caps in my Forte II? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
