PG Xenon Xover Specs

Post by audiophyle_247 »

Does anyone have or know the crossover slopes of the Xenon components?
Or possibly some specs for the Xenon tweeters?

I have been trying to backward engineer the Xover for a pair of Xenon 6.5's to find their original crossover setting & slope, but its too complex for me to figure out & looks nothing like the typical calculators Ive found online.
Here is what I have uncovered.

This is the overall circuit for the tweeter from the main Xover input. I have eliminated the phase switch, "A-pillar" switch, and HF Boost switch circuits, because with them off this is what the full path through the crossover looks like for the tweeter.

I figure its about 4kHz and the slope 12dB/oct. The actual slope depends on many variables unknown here so this is just a rough estimate. Component speakers usually have a crossover point around 3-5kHz with 12dB/oct slope so the xenon seems quite normal.

Whats unusual is the RLC-circuit in the middle which is used to attenuate a certain frequency. The tweeter might have a hump in its frequency response which needs addressing.

I've actually got a couple original manuals, but the specs listed are for the woofers only.
