I have recently learned about the DIY audio world, and got immediately hooked. I really want to build a set of powerful speakers this summer, but I cannot seem to get started with it all. There are plenty of kits online and other designs, but I want to make my own and be proud of it. I have found some drivers that I think meet my requirements, but when I try to use software like Xsim4 or VituixCAD, I cannot make a crossover. I understand how the crossover needs to be built, but the frequency response graphs do not update when I make changes to the circuit. This happens in both programs and I cant seem to find any fixes online. Its very odd because the impedance graph will update with components being added and changed but I cant see the frequency response changes. I have tried using different drivers but it has the same result.
I found 2 Dayton audio drivers on Parts Express. I got the frd and zma files from Dayton Audio's website, and I uploaded them into the software. It seems like there is some setting not checked, or the software version is buggy. I don't really know what to say, the issue is because I have tried other drivers with different frd and zma data, and it still doesn't work. I get even more confused because I can see the simulated system frequency response when the drivers are simply connected to the amp, but that graph remains unchanged if I add any crossover components.
