Crossover frequency?

barforama · 4th August 2004

Hi there

This is a FOH question.

I have purchased a pair of Yamaha SW118 subs that I wish to use together with my S115-IV club series for smaller venues. I have also bought a BSS FDS360 crossover.
The question is where I should choose my crossover points on this two way system to be. Suggestions go from 80Hz to as high as 250Hz, but I guess somewhere inbetween would be appropriate.

I guess it would be easy to hear when the PA was set up, but there is no variable frequecy knob on the BSS. I have to swich some cards internally in the unit to change the frequency and it might even neccesary to solder some new freq-cards...so I figured someone in here could help pointing me in the right direction.

thank you,
torsten

90-110Hz
