Never have posted much but still checking in from time to time!Just moved to a new place and disappointingly there's no room inside for neither my L300s nor my C40s. Both now sit in the garage. :(

Maybe a worthless comment from me - but I had 4412 and L110A, and I found the 4412 much more ... dry? Surgical? Precise? And the L110A much more ... laid back? Musical? Both great but very...
Absolutely - when done? I actually ended up burning through a spot of veneer on the top of one, so I had to strip it off and will be laying down the new mahogany and bleaching it to match (just like...
I'm finally tackling this project, and I've made a sister thread over on AudioKarma. ...
(For sake of clarity - I think it's understood here as you mentioned "labeling" - but the 16 ohm LE85 was spec'd to read DCR between 5.9 and 7.0 ohms, FWIW.)
I've got two D130s that are destined for use in my 030-loaded C40 cabinets.
They both measure around ~6.5ohms DCR and appear pretty much identical other than the binding posts and labels.
I...
You prefer 075 to 077? Not a loaded question - just wondering.
I have not replaced the foam myself but some searching turned up some leads ...

I've been wishing I was closer to Florida after the first time they popped up on eBay a while ago. Shocked they are still available.
I have 802D w/ 811 and 803B woofers in DIY cabinets. I built new crossovers (N800D clones) and documented it here...
My experience with my Cornwall II was that they were much more civilized when driven by tubes. Will you be driving them with tubes or solid state?
Thanks so much for sticking with me the whole way through!
WOW! They sound AMAZING! :bouncy: Detail, imaging, unreal. Bass is fantastic. SO happy with them! :applaud:

I haven't personally heard the exact component load in your C51s, but I've been impressed enough with the 030 load (D130 / 075) to imagine you'll likely like your C51 better than your L100s at least....
Understood, thanks! :bouncy:
So here's how I'll incorporate the resistor and pot into the 2nd order Butterworth that is the N800D. Top is the network w/o attenuation, bottom is the network w/ the resistor and the pot wired in. ...
Been poking around trying to help ... there ain't much out there.

Thank you!
I guess I never took a moment to appreciate that the N800-D is simply a 2nd order Butterworth with HF attenuation. That being the case I suppose I could use the pots I got after all,...
Setback, the Parts-Express Dayton L-pads won't work. I thought it was a constant 8-ohms from pin 1 to pin 3, with pin 2 sweeping between them. If that were the case, I could connect pin 1 to my...

After spending the morning doing some more research, it appears that there are a variety of options for an 800Hz crossover.
I could take the Heathkit AS-101 route, or a couple others like N809-8A...
I'm suspecting the crossovers were a DIY N501-8A attempt (which seems odd if the horns are 811s, maybe a mistake by the DIY'er). The black box appears impenetrable ...
