diode in a crossover design

[SnakeBite]

Hello,

i designing 2nd order crossover and i was wondering , why i never saw reverse bias diode placed across the inductors  to protect from "inductive spikes" when you turn off the amplifier?

Ido

p.s. the inductors i use are 0.51mH each

I assume you're talking about a passive crossover ?

It's an AC circuit so why would there be a inductive spike anyway?

Adding a diode across the inductor would just shunt it on half of the audio waveform.
