Need Highpass Filter?

[highhighs]

hello all,

i got two 4" 2way speaker (pioneer ts-g1040r 20w nominal) but they dont have any filters on there terminals do i need to add one, and what should be the rattings of R and C( 1st order highpass enough?).

thank you

If itsn't a component speaker (separate crossover), it usually comes with a capacitor as a high-pass filter. If yours dont have a capacitor, you can add one.

it does not have a cap, how should i add it and what is the capacitance value?

thank you

I assume you have 4Ohm impedance & cutoff @ 2KHz, so it'll be 20 microfarad cap. The smaller cap value, the higher is the cut-off freq.

Put the capacitor BETWEEN the positive line before it goes to tweeter.
