Yes they work, it's basically an inline passive crossover that blocks low frequencies from going to the speakers.

active or passive?
Err... What I mean is, are you block Amplified bass (passive)or trying to block bass from going to an Amp (active)

Try here: http://www.partsexpress.com/webpage....7&WebPage_ID=3 for passive
Here for active: http://www.partsexpress.com/webpage....195&manuid=265

A correct type and value of resistor will work fine.

The Bass Stoppers are designed to prevent damaging low frequencies from reaching automotive midrange and high frequency drive units. Improves sound quality by lowering distortion levels. Just splice the Bass Stopper into speaker positive lead. For use with both 4 and 8 ohm speakers. 6 dB per octave roll-off. *Power handling: 75 watts *Frequency blocked: 0 to 300 Hz at 4 ohms, 0 to 150 Hz at 8 ohms.
Do you have a better understanding?
