Let's ID Speakers with 1st order Crossover design.


Can you name a few names (speakers) with 1st crossover design? I'd like to give them a try.
Some of the fullrange single driver design would also on the look out. Best

Many companies are using 1st order crossovers but are the speakers timed aligned?
Fried speakers were historically first order. Not only that, but they employed a series topology that, despite its simplicity, is over the head of most in this industry. Among their myriad advantages, one interesting trait about series crossover is they are not limited to 6 db/octave slopes in the way the products mentioned above are.

Mass-fi speakers use first order crossovers as well. Forget about any desire for purist sonics (I happen to believe are the best with first order crossover), all they really want to do is to protect the tweeter from burning up, doing so as cheaply as possible.
Haven't thought about them in a while, but this post reminded me I've been impressed by Gershman Acoustics at shows (I'm thinking of the Avant Garde in particular) and I think at least some of their models use first-order crossovers and might actually be time-aligned too. I haven't heard them in years and I could be wrong, but might be another option worth looking into.
