Re: IT8000 Update & Input gain question


Vinny- EV recommended LR because that's what's usually used for symmetrical crossovers, to ensure the phase stays complimentary. By switching to BW, you have 3dB more output at the crossover knee, but your phase is now screwed. You probably should stick to what EV says unless you can measure it yourself.


You will never hit the RMS limiter of 1800 watts at 2 ohms, unless you play a sine wave. And if you do, the woofers are still going to die. As Steve said, and Bennett said, and I said previously, you might want to make the RMS limit half of the driver's RMS rating.
