    Mod thoughts, regarding stock ALTEC Model 19 crossovers.

    Hi ALL,

    On Friday, I bought a pair of Model 19s advantageously, off of Craigslist, and have been looking it over today. I have a few ideas, that I wanted to share or voice for other's input.

    On the stock crossover, if one is KEEPING the stock three inductors: (a) why not turn the middle one 90 degrees, for less field interaction.? ALSO, why not space the two "outer" inductors, each about 3/8ths of an inch closer to the edges on the stock ALTEC Model 19's metal plate, for less interaction??

    On the " grounding the rivets mod ", It appears to me, only the Input rivet, and the two Output rivets, are electrically in the ground path. Instead of wiring all four rivets together as previously shown on this forum, ( a large " C " ) why not take the input ground, and STAR wire two ground runs, to individually run the output grounds...?? That way, the tweeter will not be sharing the woofer's ground run currents.

    Oh well, have a good day

    Regards,

    Jeff.......... Low Ohms
