Topaz towers

supes · 28th January 2003, 06:47 PM

well, this will be my first real speaker project. I decided to build the topaz towers featured on pe.com here. i'm having trouble figuring out what values were used for the resistors in the crossover. in the schematic it shows 5 resistors, 2 of which are labeled with their ohm rating. in the parts list these are the only 2 resistors listed. has anyone done this project, or know what those other resistors are? I really hope I don't have to go back and order the other resistors from pe again

hopefully one of you guys can clear this up for me.. thanks.

The resistors not labeled are usually resistance from the inductors (they don't really exist) or under .5 ohms so they are discarded.

that makes perfect sense. I figured it would be something like that, guess I learned something about reading schematics today. Thanks for the help!
