This is a new crossover design based on the ALK 'CSW' crossover and designed and built with his blessing and cooperation.
These networks work great in the the following speakers: Klipschorn, LaScala, Belle, Cornwall 1, Heresy 1, and Crites Speaker Style A, B, and C.
They replace the following crossover designs: Type A, Type AA, Type A-4500Hz, Type AL, Type AL-2, Type AL-3, Type AL-4, Type AL-5, Type AK, Type AK-2, Type AK-3, Type AK-4, type AK-5, Type AB, Type AB-2, Type B, Type B-2, Type E, Type E-2, CSS500/5000Hz, CSSS500/5000Hz
These networks are designed for and only offered with Erse 1% capacitors along with high quality low-loss Litz wire air core inductors with an iron core inductor in the woofer circuit.
The low frequency crossover is roughly 400 or 600Hz (actually determined by the acoustic properties of the woofer and midrange driver.
A specially designed autotransformer having low DC resistance tight coupling provides taps to allow squawker level setting changes by the customer. The choices will be 1 to 18 dB in 1 dB steps, Attenuation is selected without soldering by push-on terminals and without cryptic setting tables. The attenuation settings are clearly written by each tap in dB units. The normal setting will be 6 dB. This adjustment will also allow the use of 8 or 16 Ohm squawker drivers without modification.
A adjustable L-Pad is provided to allow the user to select 2, 4, 6, or 8dB attenuation on the tweeter level.
The crossover network provides a constant 6 or 8 ohms load impedance to the amplifier.
These crossovers are hand-built to order and may be a few days to before shipping as we get started in our production process.

Very fine craftsmanship and a good value. These crossovers can be adjusted/tuned to please any ear. Thanks Michael!
Superb build quality and detailed craftsmanship. I almost wish these beauties were on display instead of entombed within my speakers. These crossovers work great in my modified La Scalas with large format PRV WG4550 2" midrange horns. The Universal III allows for customized adjustments to dial it all in perfectly. The adjustable L-pad jumper for the tweeters is brilliant.
The universal crossovers improved the sound of my mid ‘70s Cornwall I speakers. The sound is more defined than with the stock crossovers. Woulddefinitely recommend them to others.
Great quality. Love it
They are amazing….. made my super heresy industrial ported speakers complete. Really happy with the easy gain adjustments.
Sound quality is surreal
