English Crossover Network Introduction It is common knowledge that the automotive interior is one of the most inhospitable environments for high-fidelity sound, and that every vehicle poses its own unique set of installation and acoustic challenges. While many of these problems can often be over- come with proper speaker placement, equalization, or other techniques, the attempt is a time consuming task without guaranteed results. Yet with all these tools and methods available, it is surprising t

HP-2 HP-1 Jumper Group Function Although recommendations are made for the most common system types in the following pages, there are actually over 1000 unique and useful jumper combinations available for a wide variety of vehicles, installations and personal tastes. While this flexibility has obvious advantages, too many choices can also be confusing. Therefore, it will be helpful to under- stand the function of each jumper group in order to tune the network more effectively: TW-HP: In addition

English LP-2 LP-1 HP-2 HP-1 MID HP/LP: As a selectable bandpass filter for the midrange, the net effect of this section is naturally linked to the selections made in the tweeter high-pass and woofer low-pass sections. Achieving the most phase coherent and flat summation possible requires controlling the amount of inherent phase shift of each filter, and is directly related to the selection of filter order, Q and cut-off frequency. Again, this relationship is also affected by the dis- tance and a

LP-2 LP-3 LP-1 Jumper Group Function WF-LP: While functioning as a low-pass filter for the woofer, this section also provides a wide degree of adjustments for optimizing performance and system integration. Since it is often difficult to position the woofer and midrange close together or at equal distances, it is critical to achieve phase linkage between them to avoid localization, image smear, poor staging, etc. Additionally, vehicle interior dimensions are typically close to the wave- length of

English System Type 1 System Description With all three drivers mounted close together and equidistant to the listening position, this is surely the most favorable configuration for a component speaker system. Al- though such an installation may not often be practical in situations other than the demo- board, it is certainly possible given the custom fabrication techniques available today. In anticipation this, a degree of tolerance is built into the settings described below for the most likely

System Type 2 System Description As one of the more common applications, this installation type is the most likely to be accommodated by factory speaker locations to some degree, thus requiring the least amount of custom fabrication. However, due to the mounting arrangement and surface orientation, it also results in significant differences in distance and angle of all three drivers relative to the listener. In order to optimize performance in this case, it especially critical to link each driv

English Network Jumper Setting 10 Type-2A: For the tweeter in this case, pathlength from the listening position is con- 0 sidered to be 85cm, at approximately 15- –10 20° off-axis. Located at a moderate vertical distance down from the tweeter and basi- –20 cally flush to the panel, the midrange is –30 8.5cm farther away and presents a listening –40 angle of about 40-50°.

System Type 2 Network Jumper Setting 10 Type-2B: Tweeter and midrange positioning are the same as in Type-2A, but the woofer 0 is located farther forward.
