    Thanks, GM. These are destined to go to my living room. Any guidance on cap size?

    Too many variables: attenuation amount, driver, diaphragm model/condition, how much capacitance in series, room conditions and last, but not least, personal preference; though 0.1-1.0 uF is where all but a few seem to wind up with and I've read where a few needed as high as 2.0 uF.

    Thank you.
    Yes I have fired it up, but in my shop, with its concrete floors and other hard surfaces. So you cannot tell much. On the other hand, I've had these drivers and the crossovers in a smaller enclosure in my listening room and the results were pretty good.

    In their new homes. I'm working on adjusting the controls. So far, they sound pretty fair.
