Horatio Posted October 16, 2006 Share Posted October 16, 2006 Hello all: I am new to this forum, but not new to horns, have designed and built several sets. I have done a great deal of searching on this forum and elsewhere, but, I can't for the life of me, figure out what I need to do to make a simple change of driver (which also means going to 8 ohms here instead of the 16 ohm K55) in the midrange of my Klipschorn-based system. I am running a Type A crossover. Succinctly: what must be done to this crossover to enable it to work with an 8 ohm driver, using the same crossover point(s)? Is this a simple change of which terminals on the autotransformer, or is it more involved than this? I see that changes like this can be accomodated by ALK's universal unit, but, it seems to me that such a simple change ought to be accomplishable with the Type A as is. Surely someone has done this? Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest " " Posted October 16, 2006 Share Posted October 16, 2006 Thats it exactly With a 16 ohm driver the taps are 4 = -3db 3 = -6db 2 = -9db 1 = -12db using an 8 ohm driver 3 = -3db 2 = -6db 1 = -9db Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
