Crossover help

I took apart a pair of speakers to have a look at the crossover (see below/attachment). Not certain if I have interpreted the crossover correctly, can anyone work out the crossover frequency? The tweeter is 3rd order and the woofer is 2nd order.

You can't know the crossover frequency without knowing the impedance and frequency response curve of the drivers. a DC resistance measurement is a hint, but not good enough. A 2nd order LP may be a 3rd or 4th order acoustic depending on driver FR, and likewise with the HP filter...

Download LTSpice (or speaker workshop) and model the circuits and look for the -3dB point for each of the lowpass and highpass, when terminated by a resistor. That's the best that can be done with the info provided.
