Simple 1st order XO - TB W5-704D & BC25SC06 - sims attached - is this ok?
I have some BC25SC06 tweeters on hand and have been wanting to try the TB W5-704D for some time now. With a couple of other nicer projects I want to finish and another potential one, I was thinking to try this combo on the cheap by utilizing a very simple 1st order crossover on both the woofer and tweeter, taking advantage of the 704's fairly well behaved response. Just a single inductor on the woofer with a resistor for a low Q notch and a single cap on the tweeter with a couple of resistors. The FR seems pretty decent (I actually like that dip around 6kHz) and phase tracks pretty well. But there's a bit of the woofer's breakup just past 10kHz about 20dB down and a bit of the tweeter's resonance poking up.
How do you guys think this would sound?
Nichikuros - Peerless 831735 Nomex + Vifa NE25VTA
Digger8 - Small compact 8" sub with F3 = 20Hz
Madison-D and Madison-R - Tang Band W4-1720 + Vifa BC25SC06 or Beston RT003C (thread coming)
Jeffrey - Tang Band W5-704D + Beston RT003C (thread coming)
Jasmine - Fountek FW146 + Fountek NeoCD3.0 Ribbon (thread coming)

Personally, I'd increase the slopes a bit. I think you might hear some tweeter honking and the breakup will be noticeable at those levels. At low SPLs, it'd probably be OK though. Just my opinion...

For the tweeter, 2nd or even 3d order electrical is preferable for my taste.
Otherwise they sound gritty.
