Good info, I won't be using the PD-20's in this system. I do have a pair of EV T-35A's to drop in and think I'll try something with the Altec 808-8A/511B combination. Thanks again everyone for the assistance, Jim

Here's pics of PD-20 drivers. Point well taken on choosing the correct parts. Consider my friend with the rusty old AMC Gremlin... he puts on $10 used tires when he gets a flat and doesn't buy $200 Pirelli's! Jim

I have a pair of Altec 808-A/511B's & would like to try the 808 motor instead of the Atlas. I'm guessing the 808's are going to be hotter, so what configuration would you use to run the 8 ohm Altec's on this xover network? Jim

Does anyone have a pair of LaScala Crossovers they would like to sell? I picked up a pair of solidly built homebrew LaScala's for $20! but one is missing its xover. The ALK's are Very Nice but TOO nice for these, new ones from Klipsch are listed at $152 ea., I'm hoping for a budget-priced pair to get these playing! A few people have referenced kits for the LS - could someone pass along internet sites that have the plans? I'm curious as to their origin. The fiberglass mid-horns are pretty nice but thin and seem larger than original Klipsch. The crossover doesn't look like other Klipsch X/O's I've seen. The mid compression driver is an Atlas PD-20. The highs are a metal horn Radio Shack, larger than the EV T-35's. I'm not sure what make the woofers are, haven't figured how to get into the chamber yet. I posted some pictures & drawing with dimensions of these spkrs at http://www.cyberhighway.net/~jpg/LaScalaCopy/ Thanks, Jim
