Thank you all I have a much better understanding now!

Thank you all for your replies! @ NTL2009. I can't make myself more clear as to what I am asking, I don't know how.. Understanding 100% how a passive crossover works and understanding 100% how an active crossover works I was wondering why they don't apply active crossovers after the amplifying...

Yes, you are 100% correct, It would just have been so much nicer to be able to tweak the high power. Crossovers are very temperamental and fine tuning it with frequency crossover points, driver responses etc, it is a very long hard process and then you still end up with spikes etc.. Never really...

You partially answered me now thanks. "You are already at high power after the amp stage, so it doesn't make sense to attenuate that, filter it, and re-amplify the output signals" So managing high power signal after amp stage will be too difficult? I thought it would be an easy process to filter...

Sorry I don't want to be rude but I don't know how to get the question across correctly. Pre amplification active crossovers is NOT what I am asking. POST amplification is the question. How difficult will it be to build an active (or electric) crossover after the sound has already passed through...

Thank you, Yes but in a passive crossover you also need separate wires going from the crossover to the individual drivers. What I am trying to figure out is why has no one made an active crossover POST amplification. Surely amplified sound can still be controlled electronically?

New here, hope you guys will bare with me when I ask stupid questions! :)

Hi Guys, Im new here and don't know much about electronics so please bare with me as I try to explain what I would like to know. If you have a classic design speaker it has a passive crossover inside consisting of mainly capacitors and inductors changing the frequency (or limiting) to send low...
