Could anybody give me a pointer to a document (book, article in a journal)
which could be available in Europe, describing precisely 3-ways
crossovers ? I need information about advantages and drawbacks
of the various possible designs (Linkwitz,..) and the formulas 
that I can use to compute the value of the components.

I have found in France a book on speaker design, with a good
complete description of 2-ways crossovers, but for 3-ways
the author just says that it is too complicated, and that readers
should refer to directions-for-use published by loudspeaker
manufacturers. A bit too short for someone who wishes to design his own
speakers...

Thanks for the help.
