another crossover question - welborne labs (BD-Design)

So to tune a system I would need to:
Learn how to read inductor and capacitor diagrams(& understand their
units);
Learn how to solder, and;
Learn how to measure in-room frequency responses

Then copy and modifiy typical designs. I suppose you can find suitable
values using cheap parts and when you find the right values
substitute with good parts?

Sound all okay to me and it would be a good start. Learning while experimenting...

How do you measure phase?

No need, if things are most out of phase then you'll see a big dip (close to 180 degrees out of phase) in the frequency response at the crossover frequency.

and balancing gain, by measurement or by ear?

Both, measuring is only helping you to get on the rigth track...
