   >"Why not do a crossover electronically, before the power amps?"   
      
   Been done, is done. I screwed up, that impedance was at 19Hz, not KHz.    
      
   Active crossovers and multiple amps are the best way to go but are too   
   complicated for most people.    
      
   >"I don't like music. I never listen to it voluntarily. "   
      
   Well you are more picky than I. I am quite picky about what I will feed my   
   speakers. I also can't stand distortion. Yes my ears are half shot but I can   
   still hear some things.    
      
   Now after I thought about it, wondering why the answer was in uH was stupid. I   
   put in the measurements and they are like .034 and all , below one. So instead   
   of 0.000000000X H it was in uH. OK.    
      
   But what if I put the dimensions in metric ? They do not have different   
   Henries as far as I know.    
      
   For example when I was playing around with BASIC I wrote a program that would   
   recalculate the displacement of an ICE when bored out. In that one if the   
   measurements were put in in English the result would be, if the input was   
   metric then so would be the    
   output.    
      
   This does not seem to apply here. If I put in 2.54 instead of 1, what then ? A   
   metric Henry ? I find that hard to believe.    
      
   Anyway, this is what happens when idle hands find no Devil. And that is why I   
   put it in basics. It doesn't belong in design or repair.
