They are somehow smaller then I imagined them, but that's fine... Now I have compression drivers and horns and no damn crossover components!!! I don't have the 8.2 uf cap I need on my network (First cap in HP network). ARGHH!!! I guess it's time for an electrolyte temp... Don't have the resistors, either. I'll have to use my adjustable L-pads for now. Wayne, these things are really thick, do you countersink them? It would seem a wise move to me that would cut down on diffraction problems on the baffle. Adam

If you are concerned about diffraction, an alternative would be to surround the driver with an equal thickness of felt or wool. This would let you know if defraction is an issue, is easy to A/B and it is reversable. AR used to do this in the 70s. Dave

Be careful when you tighten down the bolts. It only took a few times for the heads to work into the soft plastic of the horn. Wish I had found bolts with bigger heads or used washers from the start.
