<div class="with-breating-room">
This is a simple component calculator for a first-order crossover.
Component values are calculated with the following formulae:
<div class="with-breating-room height-padded">
<span class="monospace">C = 1 / (2 * π * f * R)</span><br/>
<span class="monospace">L = R / (2 * π * f)</span>
</div>
</div>
<div class="with-breating-room explaining underlined">
First-order filters have a 20 dB/decade (or 6 dB/octave) slope.
All first-order filters have a Butterworth filter characteristic.
[...]
First-order filters are considered by many audiophiles to be ideal for crossovers.
This is because this filter type is 'transient perfect',
meaning it passes both amplitude and phase unchanged across the range of interest.
[...]
In practice, speaker systems with true first-order acoustic slopes are difficult to design
because they require large overlapping driver bandwidth,
and the shallow slopes mean that non-coincident drivers interfere
over a wide frequency range and cause large response shifts off-axis.
