Passive Crossovers
8 Ohm Load Charts

If you need a 16 mHy coil, you can series a 12.8 mHy coil and a 3.2 mHy coil. If you need a 70 µfd capacitor, you can parallel two 35 µfd capacitors.When the exact value of a coil or capacitor is not available, you can substitute values of ± 5% . To get the needed values for desired crossover frequencies not listed, use these formulas & calculators.

  • High Pass, Low Pass, Band Pass
  • Narrow Band Pass



  • Low Pass, High Pass, Band Pass for 8 Ohm Load line
    Capacitor (C) values = microfarads (µfd)
    Coil (L) values = millihenries (mHy)
