Congrats, Welcome, and Ditto OG not altec.
Also looks like Klipsh K-55 from here, search and you will find the atlas driver part #. Can't tell precisely, so go with OG's info until otherwise.

Don't go too crazy on the VHF $ for a 3 way setup.
I suggest starting cheap, I am back to my $10 on sale Beyma CP-09's for now.
If staying 2-way, maybe just skip to Altec/GPA 902's and play with the XO.
If you can find a cheap prebuilt XO with CD compensation, that may be your quickest route to 'I want to emulate that with good components now'. I've been happy continuing to experiment with EV XEQ-808's.

( Of course perhaps you are already well versed in XO's )
