Are all the cross overs on the 800 Diamond 1st order?

You can find the crossover schematics in the service manuals:

I've seen that. But I don't know how to tell if the crossover for the LF and midrange are first order... The hf crossover is 1st order for sure.

Why does it matter if the crossover is first order or not?

Just want to know.

I'm not sure.

If you really need to know there are 2 options which worked for me for other items.

1. call US B&W customer service on the east coast and ask them.

2. get the phone number from B&W east coast customer service and ask for the factory phone number in England. Little bit of a time difference but you can make it work.

I just asked my dealer - he's figuring it out.

Do you have the specs on the crossover?

If it is a 6dB/octave slope, it is first order.

I know HF Xover is 1st. Not sure about the rest.

It should be first order based on the layout..
