    Barcelona Details-pics

    I came across these when looking to find out which crossover is used in the Barcelona system: HiFiDo ?????ǥ????ʤ??Ǥ??㤤?ޤ?2

    Crossover is N501-8A(not sure if it includes the cover can) plus a compensation network(see pic).

    Any info on the additional network? Could it be the 30904 shown in this thread http://www.audioheritage.org/vbullet...-N501-8b/page2 ?
    They look alike but I can't read the component values.

    The Barcelona is the consumer version of the 9846-8A, so whichever one is in it.

    Thank you, GM.

    9846-8A has 30903. However the Barcelona x-over in the pics has more components. Probably baffle-step compensation and horn attenuation for home use ala 30904. What do you think?

    My 9846's have, and AFAIK always have had 30904's.

    The 1975 reference guide is incorrect in this regard.

    Ah So! So, except for Hi/Lo level adjustment, will a 416B work well in the Barcelona cab?

    That's an interesting question to which i have no useful answer.

    I'd offer this, you generally have to "work at" making a 416B sound bad.

    In that sealed alignment it might be possible to more easily damage a 416 from over excursion. You might have to observe lower LFE power handling or even high pass filter them to be safe. That said, i would guess that a sealed alignment might also adversely affect the 416's smooth upward extension into the midrange. I defer to one of our resident design experts.
