    52. The concept of a loudspeaker crossover network was presented originally in Chapter 2, Series RLC Circuits. In this chapter, we noted that by adding more components, it is possible to increase the rate of attenuation. In doing so the undesired signals are further reduced in amplitude. The circuits of Figure \(\PageIndex{25}\) and \(\PageIndex{26}\) (following page) show improved crossovers for a woofer and tweeter, respectively. Assuming standard 8 \(\Omega\) loudspeakers, use an AC frequency domain simulation to determine the crossover frequency of each network. Also, compare the curves at node \(a\) to those at node \(b\). Finally, compare the attenuation slopes to those generated by the simpler crossover network presented at the end of Chapter 2. Component values for the woofer: \(L1\) = 760 \(\mu\)H, (L2\) = 250 \(\mu\)H, \(C\) = 10.6 \(\mu\)F. Component values for the tweeter: \(C1\) = 5.3 \(\mu\)F, \(C2\) = 16 \(\mu\)F, \(L\) = 380 \(\mu\)H.
