klipschorn from 1957 xovr schematic

New on forum. Hello. My name is Pete.

Looking for schematic of the crossovers on 1957 klipschorns.

They are 16 ohms.

2 big aircoils, a small transformer, 2 oilcan caps, 2uf and 4 uf.

Very greatful for assistance.

Thanks.

PS: I dont like my usrname but it will have to do.

Please see pics in my post on Audiokarma.

They are too big for here.

Someone else will chime in most likely.

Can you post a picture of what you've got?

One of those air cores is a .50mH and runs to the midrange horn.

The other air core is a 2.5mH and runs to the woofer.

The 2uF capacitor hangs off of the little transformer (autotransformer) and connects to the tweeter.

The 4uF also hangs off of the autoformer, and runs between input positive (from the amplifier) to the input tap on the autofomer.

The horn is the K-5-J horn, and it's probably being attenuated 6dB down with the autoformer. The reflected impedance back to the amplifier would be roughly 64 ohms, and using the 4uF capacitor -- gives you a crossover point in the vincinty of 500Hz.

At least, this is what I think.
