    OT: Need a little help with adding subwoofers

    Ok, need a little help here. I need to start adding subwoofers to 4 sets of speakers, and am looking for an electronic low pass filter but alas, none exist.

    Right know I am trying to add a pair of Alpine SWR 1040D subs, powered by a Crown DC300A amp next to my Altec 418-8H II (F3 = 44hz), 807-8d/32B, crossed over with a N501-8A. Down the road I could add more subs and more watts as needed.

    I realize that the 500hz crossover isn’t optimal for the 32B horn and would like to eventually cross at something like 1000hz, so I’m torn between a car audio low pass crossover or some pro sound one.

    Berhinger CX3210 24db/ octave Behringer: SUPER-X PRO CX2310

    The Peavey T300, Altec A7-500, and EV Sentry IV II all just need a low pass crossover and more bottom end.

    What to do? And did I mention cheap?

    WinIST screen shots to come shortly when I get everything sorted out.
