noob question about crossovers (alien.top)

hi,

i am looking to build my own speakers - Im currently leaning towards "Dinas" as I want monitor speakers with a boomy bass, but I am a little daunted by the crossover build.

before I buy the plans etc. is it possible just to buy an out the box ready to go crossover

https://www.parts-express.com/Dayton-Audio-XO3W-375-3K-3-Way-Crossover-375-3-000-Hz-260-150?quantity=1

something like this? what is the cons of using a preassembled xover

​

sorry If this has been covered before but I couldnt find any information on the same.

thanks

Yeah I agree almost completely with you. I don’t know if the designs themselves are bad but there are hundreds of designs out there that are free or at least designed by someone competent (reminds me of Jeff Bagby). YouTube designs rarely make sense.
