What is the recommended crossover settings on Olympica I? I know they can go as low as 50 Hz, but they typically roll over higher than that. Anyone has a graph?
Thanks!

I'll have something shortly. I'm running a pair of O1's in my bedroom with a pair of JL Fathom F110 V2 subwoofers in stereo.
From my research the O1 and O3 use the same tweeter, and mid driver, but the O3 has a woofer section whereas the O1 does not. The crossover is 250hz for the O3 woofer section.
I'm going to use a McIntosh MEN220 active EQ to crossover around 80-120hz. I'm going to see what sounds best and what the graphs show.
I wanted to go up to 250hz to duplicate the response as the O3 but the F110's have a -3db fall off by 120hz, and then a -10db fall off by 155hz, so it just can't hold a flat response like I need higher up.
