I couldn't find a schematic for this or any other info.What drivers were used with this crossover ?

A better question would probably be what systems used it. Then go from there. Having said that..... I don't know.
- It was used with the A7-500-8E system, consisting of a 828E cabinet / 902-8T on a 511b horn / & 416-8C for a woofer .Originally Posted by sbjacob
- This info was findable in the LHF library ( even though it's not searchable using the sites' search-engine ) .
- As far as the N501-8b schematic, I really doubt that it's anything more than an updated version ( ie; cheapened enclosure ) of the N501-8A whose schematic can be found over at Altec Pro ( use Google ) .
- You've got one, open it up , compare its' cap values to those of the N501-8a, & post the results so the rest of us can learn something from your thread .
>< cheers
In the quick search I did the other day, I found information stating that the A and B are indeed different. I think it was over on AudioKarma.
Most of the Altec home VOTT systems crossed at 800 not 500, but I beleive these 500 crosses were used in the Barcelonia and Santiago systems.
I think:
Barcelona = 411 woofer, 806 HF, 511 horn, 500 cross
Santiago = 411 woofer, 806 HF, 811 horn, 500 cross
...but I could be wrong... ..you can search here to confirm.
Not sure what the issue is, but it's apparent there is one....
If anyone is interested in the results you can shoot me a email at [email protected]
OK - The Barcellona has a 500 cross, 511 sectorial horn, 802 compression driver and a 411 woofer. According to the posted reference material above, the woofer is housed in a sealed enclosure.
Obvioulsy, reading the material posted on this cite is somewhat tricky. I finally downloaded the file to my HD and converted it to a file my machine can read. ....not an easy task for many.
sbjacob, It would be great if you could pick up where post #9 left off.
I opened up and is similar to the N501-8A however there is are a few more caps.I replaced the 3uf cap and added a Dayton Film and Foil bypass cap .47uf on the 28uf caps until I can get some new ones.I will post inductor value later as I can not find my leads on my inductance meter.Also I will post ohm and watt of the resistors and when I get time post a schematic.Attachment 39959
