    Crossover build

    Hello everybody, I am a musician in an orchestra without the nessesary understanding of crossover build!
    I love to build fullrange enclosures but now I capitulate with my next project.
    A friend of mine sold me his Altec 806A/Isophon Orchester combi. Sounds very good!

    Now I am interested in a pair of Altec 3156 for a original cabinet made for this driver. The 8156X...
    Here I already have made from some other cabinets from a AN12 project.

    I am interested in the sound from these two Altec drivers playing together!

    Now my question: When I combine these two, what crossover do I put in front of the 3156? And : can I just remove the 806A driver crossover and put it in the box of the 3156 next to the 3156 crossover tangeled like in my combo Altec/Isophon? Is it required to put a 24dB/octave in front of the 806 to be sur that 500Hz is not to be lower?
    I have the specs of each driver! If somebody needs details...

    Greets from germany, chris

    Hi

    I was wondering what type of horn/driver is on top of your cabinet?
    What does it sound like?

    Thanks
