Hello, I am an complete beginner with Horns, I did use for several time an Klipsch Forte II pair, great sound.My Finals are sold and the Klipsch are also to an new owner, I did buy an A la Klipschorn bas-cabinet with an Ravemaster 18" inside, For the Mid i did buy an Iwata 85 cm horn with an JBL 2482 and for the High an Fostex T945N this all in 2x
I have decided to use 2 x an NAD 2200PE amp so there are four mono-amps
I need an active crossover but do not now what to choose
I also need an passive cross for the Mid en the High, somebody any idea?I like to here from you experts or semi experts or anyone who have an idea on this, there an relative smaal room in use for this set size in meters = 3.6 x 7.5 = in feet 12 x 25 real wood floring with damping insulation underneed, 'I am listening most of the time to old Jazz en some R&B, Bluess.
BTW the Netherlands is my living Country
And if possible an solution for an 3 way passive filter for the use with an little tubeamp 2 x 5 watt.

Here is an analog crossover. Low cost, but very good sound.
Hello,
You may consider the following two solutions (both semi-DIY):
1. Thel Audio SAW.30 (2-way active analog filter, that has a good reputation).
2. GroundSound DCN23 (3-way digital filter with a lot of features).
I know a guy who has tried the GroundSound filter and found it VERY attractive and easy to use.
Here is a link for the last option:
www.groundsound.com
BTW: What is the flare rate (Fc) of the beautiful Iwata horns, and where can they be bought? Thanks!
Good luck!
Kind regards
Peter
I do not know what the flare rate is, this horns are special made by an Belgian Carpenter he knows what he doing, its was an 20 pieces run only, and special made to contribute to the JBL 2482 the horns are bought second hand aswel te drivers, for as little as $800,- the subs for $850,- and de fostex for $200,- the total til now = $1850,- I think its an BARGAIN !I did look at; www.groundsound.com, i have to read myself trough this matter before wil come back to this.
Thanks ! so far
Old Jazz, thats Rocks!!

I would highly recomend a digital loudspeaker controller (analog in and out)
You can select your xover slopes
You can have delay and phase control for each loudspeaker in your array
Just having the ability to time align all your drivers is worth it
You have the ability to use Eq/parametric/compression
DBX makes the driveracks with different price ranges from 500.00 to 3000.00
BBE makes a digital loudspeaker controller for around 450.00
If your looking to spend a little money then Behringer (250.00) makes an affordable digital loudspeaker controller
Just do a search and research this type of loudspeaker control
The parameters you can control with one of these is great
Stuart, thanks for the reply, this is an good reaction, I have searches the net and the DBX is not good available overhere, only 2 examples and both over the 1600 dollar mark, i m looking somewhere around the 800 dollar max, do you have any experience with the Alto maxidrive 3.4 PC or the Alesis DEQ 830, < i have seen this one only the seller had no information or knowhow about this, there was an reasanoble pricetag from 430 euro's = 580 dollar the price's overhere are most of the time more expensive.
With kind regards, @3aan
Old Jazz, thats Rocks!!
The Alto looks like a nice piece of gear for the price
You can get xover slopes up to 48db per octave and that is
better then most of the units I have seen
What is great about a unit like this is the ability to experiment
with many combinations of settings to achieve what gives you the
best results with your loudspeaker array
With a typical analog xover you are very limited with options
