Altec Capri

[gundul]

Hello guys

My friend gave me pair of Altec Capri 887a speakers. But the crossover was gone on both speakers.


Anyone know the pot value on capri's crossover?
Or anyone who still have Capri speakers, can you please check it for me.


Hope anyone can help me.

Thanks in advanced and sorry about my english. English isnt my 1st language.

I would guess that the pot for the High Frequency driver is not a pot but an L-Pad.
A 100W L-Pad should more than suffice for this duty.

Searched on net and find a pic of crossover of capri

i thought it was pot. but after looking for L-Pad on net, i think you are right.

never know about crossover, guess i need to read and learn about l-pad on the net.

Thanks a lot for your reply

That's a medium-sized bookshelf model from the early '70's with some kind of phenolic ring tweeter, right?
