What isn't bose experimenting with?! Do you know how many things they "experiment" with and never put it into play?

What the heck would shock absorbers do? A shockmount for your car? Geez... a car isn't meant to be a studio! You drive it.

a crossover sperates the signal comming from the reciever into multiple signals and sends the high frequencies to the tweeter the mid to the midrange and the low to the woofers ( ur gonna be needing a crossover in each box) u also have to watch out when u buy them to make sure that they are the right amount of ohms and they can handle the power that u wanna deliver to the speakers....hope that helps gizmo90
 
does that mean u can put multiple speakers on a single channel? example: say u hav a 5.1 channel setup......and u want to put 2 speakers on channel...do u hav to use a crossover to split the channel between the two speakers....and is a crossover somthing that comes with speakers or do u hav to buy them seperate at a retailer? or is a crossover just a wiring configuration? thanx for the help:D
 
No no no... let me explain this a little better.

A crossover divides up frequencies. A crossover acts like a separator for frequencies. Depending on how you set the crossover (if there is a way... some are factory set), low frequencies will go one way (to your sub), and the high frequencies will go another (normal speakers). You use a crossover to get the max out of your speakers without damaging them.

Bass speakers are made to respond to low frequencies and vice versa for tweeters/drivers (they are made for high frequencies). So if you didn't have a crossover, and you were sending low frequencies to a speaker that couldn't handle it, then it would distort, pop, or damage the speaker itself. To prevent that, you use a crossover to send the low freq's to a speaker that CAN handle them.

Kinda hard to explain, but that is a pretty good explanation.
 
Crossover: A device that filters music into separate bands, and allows only the frequencies above or below the crossover frequency to pass to the speaker or speakers.

the crossover separates the signal for each of the tweeter, super tweeter, midrange, and woofer drivers on a speaker.
 
now to mention the you have passive and active crossovers. active mean it is crossover before the amplification process (better but more expensive to do). Passive is done after the amplification process(the most common method. it is usually inside the speaker box)
 
many receivers have a second set of output (B) for the front channel
