Hello!
First off, I do hope i'm in the right section of the forums to post this.
I've been researching and reading about DIY audio lately, and I'm making a DIY boombox!
My amplifier is a two channel amplifier with 30W+30W (total of 60W) of power, each channel has a full range speaker and now, I want a tweeter.
By my understanding, I need a high pass filter in-line with the tweeter. I used this site to calculate the values as well.
I wanted a first order high pass filter and it shows me a Capacitor only design. (http://www.the12volt.com/caraudio/cross.asp#hp)
However, some other websites how an Capacitor with Resistor (RC) HPF design.
I'm wondering now, if there is a difference? And which one should I pick for the tweeter?
