Question for Wayne - Compensation Network Resistor Chain


I've noticed in the previous postings that there are different ways to gang the resistors to come up with the required 40W power handling for the Theater 4 Pi network. I thought I would assemble 2 series pairs of 15ohm-12w mills in parallel to create an equivalent 15ohm 24w resistor network. Since I plan on driving these speakers with low powered tube amps is this the way to do it? I have 16 of the Mills 15ohm - 12w resistors so I hope I'm OK and don't have to re-order. These ain't cheap! Though I guess I could go for the cement resistors which aren't too bad. And I assume 15ohms is close enough to the 16ohm spec to work properly!?

Garland (and thanks!)
