Complimentary series crossover circuits to reduce phase distortion in loudspeaker groups, typically pairs, are described. In the fundamental embodiment, each loudspeaker possesses two drivers, a woofer and a tweeter. The “effective third-order” crossover on the right-hand loudspeaker remains “symmetric,” but the “effective third-order” crossover on the left-hand loudspeaker is rendered “asymmetric,” as described. Other embodiments apply this principle to higher crossover orders and greater numbers of drivers. This technology is applied to the series filter in 2.5-way, 3.5-way, etc. loudspeakers using otherwise conventional series/parallel crossovers. This technology can be combined with other circuits like a Zobel, typically used for impedance correction. Some configurations of “phase-unified” loudspeakers require that a Zobel is applied to all drivers except the tweeter. Accordingly a rule combining effective crossover order and handedness is established.
