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!)
