    Re: N1600 crossovers for my 604Ds

    Thanks CD and Don. As far as I can glean, the 604D is identical to the 604C. I found this page:

    Altec 604's - the various models

    Where it says:

    Altec 604D (looked just like 604C)
    HF horn: 90h40v
    X-over: 1600 Hz
    Power: 35 watts, 50 peak
    Impedance: 16 ohms
    Weight: 40 lb.
    Magnet: Alnico
    Response: 30Hz - 22kHz
    Free Air Resonance:
    Frame: green hammer-tone
    Cone: all paper cone
    comment: 604D was in the 1957 catalog and was not superceded by the 605 until 1959
    after that 604Ds were built one-off for special customers i.e. recording studios


    I have read this same info elsewhere.

    I have seen Jeffs XOs for 604Bs w/E cones as well as 8Gs, but nothing for the 604C. I like the idea of a little time delay.

    To add to the confusion, mine were reconed by GPA. I guess I should call Bill and see what he might have put in there and what he would suggest. He's got XOs but they're $178/ea. I think I could come in at half that if I build my own.

    Here's a pic of the cones on mine:
