Without knowing lots more information about the speakers and amplifiers and what you're trying to accomplish its hard to help.

If all else fails RTFM.

Try googling "punctuation". It's an amazing grammatical device that makes it possible for others to have a clue about whatever it is you are trying to say.

Ok let's try again I replaced my old DoD 834 crossover which by the way is very simplistic crossover. On it I had three knobs and a gain per side. Well it started acting up so I replaced it with a behring cx3400 crossover and everything I'm used to seeing except the delay knob and time threshold knob. I'm not familiar with it. Also at this point I'm not really proficient with frequencies at all so it is why I ask what are the frequencies for lows , mids, and highs. So if you don't know either please keep your negative comment 2yourself thank you.

Yes, I could help you.

But, I think I'll just keep my pie hole shut.

Never mind got my answer from a sound engineer not someone hanging in forums comparing sizes. Anyhow got a straight up answer from someone that knows what they're talking about.

Glad you got it handled. If nothing else, you've started using punctuation. So, I guess you did learn something here.

not someone hanging in forums comparing sizes.
Gotta' go....time to measure.

Why the attitude?
You have no idea what lots of people in this forum have credential wise.
And know what they're talking about.
Did you see your sound engineers ticket?
Built:
DR 250: x 2 melded array, 2x CD horn, March 2012 plans.
T39's: 4 x 20" KL3010LF , 2 x 28" 3012LF.
WH8: x 6 with melded array wired series/parallel.
Bunter's Audio and Lighting "like"s would be most appreciated...

Do you mean 'the ticket belonging to the sound engineer'...?

This is the funniest thread I've read in a long long time, anywhere! ...only eclipsed by Gregory East's description (in words) of the sounds a car audio system (playing modern music) was making, once, when he drove his cab by.
2xJ12L (3012HO) switchable/melded
2xT30

Words&graphics - Audio&Acoustics - Hardware&DSP; 3 different paradigms.

Hopefully you fed that person a bit more info than you fed us. If you didn't, and he or she still gave you an answer, maybe he or she needs to spend a little time on this forum "comparing sizes" because there are no cookie cutter answers to these questions.

Glad you're working though! :clap:

25 o clock, except for that one, which you have to set to blernsthirty.

And don't forget to fap the foo with the florbocker.
