Performance Specs
• Precisely matched acoustic crossover points ensure natural tonal flow between midbass, midrange, and tweeter.
• Hand-matched components maintain consistent left/right imaging and stereo balance.
• Time-phase alignment built in for smooth driver transitions and staging depth.
• Optimized to preserve the natural timbre and detail ESB K-Series is known for.
Key Features
• True 3-Way Crossover Network – Designed specifically for the 3.6K3 driver set.
• Tweeter Level Control – Allows tuning for vehicle cabin brightness or reflective surfaces.
• High-Grade Film Capacitors – Ensure clarity and stable harmonic behavior.
• Air-Core Inductors – Prevent magnetic saturation, preserving spatial detail.
• Heavy-Duty PCB + OFC Internal Wiring – Maintains signal integrity.
• ESB Sound Signature – Focused on realism, imaging, and musical depth.
Integration Notes
• Use with 3.6K3 drivers only for proper tonal and phase alignment.
• Amplifier Power: 75–200 W RMS recommended for ideal dynamic performance.
• System Placement: Mount crossovers away from heat sources and vibration.
• Installation Time: Approx. 30–45 minutes per crossover.
Pro Tip:
Keep crossover mounting accessible—level adjustments may need fine-tuning after system time alignment and seating position evaluation.
