that is fine
what about the high pass filter,rear filter and center filter
thanx a lot for the circuit
hoping for the next
Shikhir says
But the bass range comprises of frequencies upto 200 Hz.So what about the freq above 80 Hz
Dan says
Correct, your confusing a base speaker and a sub speaker. Subs are designed with their own powered amps 5-80, I like mine at 30. so it only gives you the chest punches tones. next comes your base speaker, middle, then tweeter.
Sanchit says
Mr. Shikhir is absolutely right, bass range is upto 200 Hz. So is there any possible modification in the circuit??

i want a help that how to connect this ckt to audio amplifier ckt, becoz i have an audio amp of double ICs of TDA2005.how much range(max. & min.) of voltage can i give it. where it will connect before amp or after amp.
Mujtaba says
Assemble this circuit on Breadboard or VeroBoard (as you required), Feed the power from Dual Power supply. Connect the input wire of this circuit (L GND R) to your source of sound equipment like PC, Laptop, Mobile, iPod, Television etc. Connect the audio input of your TDA2005 (as mentioned) amplifier to the output of this circuit.
Nadis says
Thanks for this circuit. works great exept that its only secont order and i need something close to fourth order to compleatly filter hi tones. Btw best subwoofer filter is just from 20hz to 85 hz. Sry but 200hz sounded funny...
