Well this took a while to get all the parts and pieces together but here it is. The drivers I ended up with are a
T-35 tweeter
Atlas PD-4V squawker
2 Peerless 8" 12ohm drivers
E-Type crossover
After glueing, screwing and sealing the box, I installed the woofers in holes that were slightly too big. I made some gaskets for the first test. seemed to seal ok. I'll come up with a better solution later. My first impressions are mixed. The woofers sound surprisingly good. Lots of good base as my B&K 507 crosses over to the sub at 60hz. the tweeter is nice and sharp. The upper mids are fair. The 2 woofers are parallel to present a 6ohm load. I am going to put a different coil on the woofers to keep the crossover point at 700hz. I have some questions about the mid and tweet crossover points. I've asked but seem to get no information, so here goes.
1. stock E-Type xover points are 700/7000 I would like to put new caps on this.
a. I've been told the T-35 won't safely go that low (6000) and the PD-4V won't go that high (6000). And I've been told it will.
b. Here is a copy of my xover. will this work? If not what are the correct values?
c. if the squawker and tweeter connections are changed on the autoformer, what caps are needed to keep the xover points the same on the 1,2,3,4 tabs?
d. should the xover point be 7000 or 6000?
Should I go with a Type AA instead?
