Excellent! Thank you!

Those make my monitor 10's look small, and sad. But, they sound good.

Picked 'em up today. You weren't kidding. Bigger and much heavier than Monitor 10's

Wow, those are bigger. How do they sound?
I'm loving ing the 10's so far.

I did a quick audition at the seller's place and they were pretty good. Loud of course if needed and a big bass punch. But sounded a bit muffled, maybe unclear, so a recap may be in order. I'm doing some renovations at home so won't be able to hook 'em up for a while. Also want to do the woofer magnets first.

I glued the magnets in my 10's. Replacing the caps and resistors made a difference with mine. I was surprised to find a couple of the wire wound resistors out of spec. I guess the 5 watt resistors used maybe weren't big enough? I went with 10 watt. The electrlytic caps were out of spec for sure.

I'm looking forward to working on the XO's. Sounds like fun projects.

If the crossover is on the terminal cup like the others, you may have to get a bit creative and lengthen the leads on the film caps and mount some of the parts vertically to fit back in the hole.
