Simplexx 1x12 questions
Re: Simplexx 1x12 questions
Would a water based flexible acrylic decorators caulk be suitable for sealing under the handle flanges?
Re: Simplexx 1x12 questions
I'm using a BGH25 and an L-pad in my cabinet. Do I need to test the polarity of the BGH25 before fitting the L-Pad, or can I just connect the crossover to the + and - speakon terminals, the L-pad to the crossover output, and the L-pad + output to the red BGH25 terminal?

I had read those pages. I wasn't sure if it was ok to switch the wires around if I already have the L-pad connected, or if I needed to do the test prior to fitting the L-pad.

Re: Simplexx 1x12 questions
You switch them at the driver, so there's no reason not to connect the LPad.

Re: Simplexx 1x12 questions
There's a better way to do it, now that I think about it. Get this app on your phone:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/deta ... ioanalyzer
Set it to Spectrum Analyzer, 1/3 octave, C Weighting, Slow Response. Download a Pink Noise generator, play it through your amp/speaker. Then follow the HF driver polarity test procedure. Whichever way the leads are connected that gives the flatter response result on the RTA screen is the way to connect them.

Understood, but thread bombing isn't the way to do it. Besides that there's this:

Re: Simplexx 1x12 questions
Well I've finally got my cab to a functional stage, the end is in sight
I am using a 3012HO and a BGH25 with Bill's crossover design and an L-pad..
I am getting a fair amount of hiss from the tweeter, is this normal, or have I messed up somewhere?
