Madisound Assembled Crossovers
Each crossover is professionally assembled by Madisound on a
Matrix Double (11" x 5.6") silver tinned inlaid OFC copper circuit board.
The series tweeter circuit uses a
ClarityCap CSA cap and
Mundorf MOX resistor. The parallel tweeter circuit has a 19awg air core inductor.
The series midrange circuit uses a
ClarityCap PX cap,
Sidewinder 16awg air core inductor,
and Mundorf MOX resistor. The parallel parts are a poly cap and MOX resistor.
The series woofer circuit uses ultra low DCR
Sledgehammer 15awg steel laminate inductor.
Upgrade options are available from the drop down menu. Contact us if you have a specific combination of parts you want to use and/or need them setup for bi-wire/bi-amping.
