I am finally building a pair of 4 Pi speakers that I have put off for a very long time. I have a couple of questions that I hope someone can answer.

First, one of the inductors has become detached from the PCB crossover board. I see that a silicon glue was used, and that this takes a very long time to cure. Does anyone have a suggestion as to how I can re-glue the inductor to the board so that it can be mounted in a speaker within a week or two?

Second, for internal wiring, it looks that I can use 16 gauge speaker wire if I want to solder directly to the crossover board, or I need to use crimp connectors if I want to use a thicker gauge wire. 16 gauge wire seems a little thin, but will it make a difference, is there a preference?

Finally, both R11 or R13 insulation are recommended, but I think I remember reading somewhere on this forum that one is preferred. Is one better than the other?

Thanks,

Daniel
