Altec N-1600-D crossover question
Looking for the component values for the "D" version of N-1600.
Got the N-1600-C diagram from a gentleman over at the High Eff forum, that indicated the large cap = 16 uF, the coil = 1 mH, and the HF cap = 4 uF.
DCR on my Altec 605B's measures LF = 10.7 Ohms, HF = 8 Ohms.
Have some fine PIO caps and air core coils, and would like to try copy the original filter, but with better components, and fixed resistor values instead of the L-pad.
Later I will try to make the crossover design by Jeff Markwart.
Thanks in advance for any help.

Replace the 16 uF paper cap with a new " poly " type. The 4 uF bath tub and coil do not go bad. You will have to dig out the old caps from the potting wax.

Man, I need to start making these and selling them...these prices!

There's a stack of XOs listed by that seller, in fact a pair of 604-8k just sold.
