    Considering it's a 500 Hz XO, doing a dab of Elmer's glue or similar + maybe a tiny piece of TP shouldn't be audible since the WLs < its effective piston, patch diameters will be rolled off enough by the XO point/slope.

    i have the drivers and horns to make up a pair of these. the 909s diaphragms are 26420 pascalites. they look new.
    This could be my next Altec build soon as i get moved into N Florida. House couple acres barn and no neighbors.

    The secret to success will be finding the data to successfully clone the 630hz high power handling crossover, it's got some special shelving and HF protection.

    I'd go here and save ALL images if you;re serious about the build: ALTEC LANSING M500 crossover - MES ENCEINTES ACOUSTIQUES

    I don't think you'll find that info anywhere else.

    Interesting! I've been calling them 500 Hz due to what the distributor said way back when they got a demo pair in and no one's ever corrected me , so wondering if it's adjustable.
