how to hookup tweeter capacitors?
i purchased 2 gmi compression drivers to replace the blown ones in my pa speakers. (d-69). each one has a capacitor on them with one end soldered to the positive terminal and the other end is not attached to anything. my question is where does the other end go. should i attach the wire that would go to the positive terminal to the other free end of the capacitor? help please i need these speakers sunday. i assume its a low pass crossover capacitor but dont want to do any damage and want to be sure
you need to protect the tweeter from bass frequencies – so you should probably connect the cap in series
an inductor connected in parallel across the driver would provide further protection
crossover design can be complicated stuff – isn’t there a crossover diagram???
