    Default Tritrix TL and Sealed Box Crossovers

    I'm building a sealed box CC to go with my Tritrix TL's using the design by Curt Campbell. The TL's and crossovers are working great. I built the same crossover for my center channel as the TL's. I have used Parts Express' circuit board (PE 260-130) and drilled a couple of extra holes for the resistor in Curts crossover (the tweeter side). I wanted to check continuity through the crossover. From input to woofer out the circuit is OK. On the tweeter side the check indicates an open circuit. Is that right or wrong. I thought it would check continuity from input to output on both woofer and tweeter. Help? http://www.speakerdesignworks.com/TritrixMTMnet2.gif

    There are plenty of more knowledgeable folks on the board, but until one of them comes along -- I presume you're using a meter to check for continuity? If so, have you checked the circuit element by element to isolate where the problem is located? It would appear that you've either got a bad solder joint somewhere, or one of the parts is bad. Most likely, a bad connection...

    Tweeter circuit will show open (no current), because of the cap. But you can test the negitive circuit side (-).
