Crossover Build

Some pics of my new crossover build for a set of Belles I'll be putting together.

These are AP12 - 500 & AP15 - 6000 design with upgraded components.

 

As you can see I've used all Sonicaps in the bass section & Jantzen Superior Z's in the top section. Have just alligator clipped the swamping resistor in place until I get the final settings. Will hopefully trialling these on a friends LS soon. 

Inductors are custom hand wound 3mm (8 gauge) for the bass & Solen Litz for the top. The bass inductors weigh about 5kg each so these are quite a handful & I'm hoping that this will give a noticeable improvement to the bottom end of the Belles. I'll be porting the cabs up into the mid horn cabinet & using the foam layer mod in the doghouse. 

 

Hope to start cutting wood early next year.

Nice coils, where did you get them?

Hi Dean,

Mike Lenehan from Lenehan Audio on the Gold Coast in Queensland made them for me.....nice job. I was originally going to go for North Creek, but they are no longer available. Mike winds these by hand - 3mm copper.
