Hi guys, I want to add tweeters with a crossover for each of my front speakers, OR, as i am not using any of the speaker outs of the head unit i can use those to separatley power the tweeters. I know next to nothing about cross overs, so i will need extensive and detailed help.....the speakers are rated at 6 watts @ 4 ohms, i will be running two off each crossover (4 in total) so the specs of the xover need to accomodate 12W@8ohms ..the other thing is , i dont know what frequency i want the to run off...oh and also can i step down the wattage from the 50W coming from the head unit to 12W? ...in essence, what i am ultimatley asking for is a HOW-TO o nbuilding these xovers...and if they are even possible.

Thanks in advance...and i apologise for the lack of knowledge in this area.

Build the box so that it performs well in the worst case scenario and, in return, it will reward you at all times.
