Speaker Passive Crossover Networks Aren’t Universal

I often see people on Facebook Marketplace, eBay, Craigslist or Kijiji (in Canada) selling the passive crossover networks that came with their car audio component speaker sets. In most cases, these people have likely opted for an active system installation that uses a DSP and four dedicated amplifier channels to power their speaker system.

Listen Up! Some Car Audio Equipment is Frustrating

I bought my youngest son a small gardening trowel from the dollar store to use when he and I go metal detecting.
