So I think my next experiment just might be to reconnect that JL Xover, to run:
- Neo3's on the tweeter outputs
- Volvo Dynaudio domes on the Midrange outputs (filtered to 500hz up by the Dayton filter)
- Anarchy from 500hz down (another Dayton filter)
Why?
It gives me the option to:
- to get the dome-to-Anarchy Xover point as low as possible... 250hz?
- to get the Neo3S-to-dome Xover point as low as possible as well... I'm hesitant to put it between 1khz and 2khz but I clearly could get it somewhere between 500hz and 750hz.
I'd really need to listen to that in car - using the domes just to get the response down below 500hz, so I can lower the Anarchy Xover point lower is pointless if my imaging is fine with the Anarchies playing up to 500hz. If it works - great. No need for tweeters with these, really.
But - if there's no need for the domes, then I will bring in some tweeters just to serve as supertweeters, really - 10khz and beyond 20khz. It's not that I need it, the detail on these Neo3's leave nothing to be wanted - but sometimes that extra "sparkle" can also add realism.
And of course I have nothing installed in the car yet so I might be pulling some jenky trick to do that listening on a temporary rig - I can pull something out of storage but I don't even have power wire run - time to start ordering amps I think.
