Another XO done

[ben62670]

I did another XO for a Polkie. I used Dayton caps, and resistors.
R1 is located on the bottom. The 12, 20, 40 uf caps are all stacked:) The wire I used for the jumpers is Silver of coarse;)

What speaker is that for? Looks just like my 1C xover, but there is no 2.7ohm resistor in the R1 position.

R1 is relocated on the bottom;)

Did you just go with the 4.3 uF from Dayton? If so, I have some Dayton 0.1uF Film/Foils that would go nicely in parallel and bring it up to the original spec of 4.4uF. Let me know if you want to try them.

I used the 4.3uf. The .1uf isn't necessary. The originals were 20% caps, and these are 5%. The 4.3 would test well within spec.
Thanks for the offer.

20%? You sure? I thought they were like 5 or 10%. Regardless, using a 4.3 is only 2.2% off, but if that 4.3 is 5% off from its value (the Dayton's are 5% tolerance), you could be off by up to 7.1%, which is more than I would be happy with.

Nice work! I like those ICs on the table too... :D

Does the board snap back onto the inductor with the original plastic fasteners with R1 on the bottom?

nice work as always... :)

No problems with clearance at all;)

Yeah looks great.

All this talk about updating xovers has got me going now. Time to do my 7Cs...

Ben, you doing the inductor too?

Not on this set. These aren't mine;)
