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 .

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
