That was long enough, right?

 

I've added onto leads that were too short before. Or clipped off the old part and left the leads there so I wouldn't have to unsolder off of the board.

Is this the kg4 crossover? Does anyone have a parts list for one? I’d like to do my kg4 boards but need a detailed list of the parts needed. Thanks. Sorry for jumping onto your post

The leads were not long enough to bend 90 degrees and extend out past the radius of the part itself? That's poor QC at its finest.

 

From the pic it looks like it doesn't sit all the way down on the board.

It is a KG4. The 3 caps are 3uf, 8uf (I used 8.2uf) and 33uf (1 of each). Then a polyswitch rated at 7 amp but I used a 6.5 amp Parts Express didn't have a 7 and there's enough tolerance to use a 6.5. Chances are your inductors are fine.

It doesn't. It wouldn't go down any more because the inductors were too close together. The lead I had problems with is the one unseen at the top of the pick. The lead at the bottom was had plenty of length.

They do extend that far, plus some. But I had to bend them back under to reach the hole in the board AND that Audyn wouldn't fit flat on the board between the inductors.

Thank you very much. I’ll look in my parts container and see if I have any of these
Would you know where I could find a schematic on it so I can maybe make a board
Instead of mounting all of these on the input cup
