What driver is reproducing vocals?

[S_rangeBrew]

When I'm listening to some music on my Ascend HTM-200s, which driver is reproducing the vocals? The tweeter, the woofers, or both? And if both, what percentage is on each one? I'm talking about something like Norah Jones.

Does anyone know what range vocals are at, and what the x-over frequencies are in my speakers?

Just wondering, because the vocals sound really good on these speakers.

While I don't recall the crossover point, it is likely at least 2kHz which means that all but the most high-pitched of vocals would coming from the woofers. I'll see if I can dig up the diagram I found showing frequency ranges of various instruments and vocals.

I found the diagram (http://home.tir.com/~ms/concepts/concepts.html), but there seems to be some disagreement in the range of vocals between different diagrams, particularly on the upper end of the spectrum.

Now that I read through stuff, I'm remembering that there is a good deal of song/speech in the 1kHz-3kHz range, so the crossover handling is critical.

Interesting stuff. So it looks like the vocals may be split between the two...

Or even three...

I'm pretty sure that low male voices (think James Earl Jones here) can dip below 100 Hz. Ever noticed Darth Vadar's voice coming out of your subwoofer? Should be localizable in the 80-100 range.
