Probably dont have to worry about reverse engineering for a while!
I hope your COVID recovery is rapid and complete.
LSD would get me to the astral plain, but I decided to go with some pot. I was too lazy to go out to the store and L-pads were all I had in the closet. I dropped the midrange 12 dB and the tweeter 8 dB. The speakers no longer sound like total crap. Oddly enough one judge loved them with the high end cranked. Too bad I didn't the pots in there in time for the contest. So yeah, more part man! Built from parts on hand, I had to parallel two, three or four coils, caps and resistors to get some of the required values. So it should be 1/2 as many parts. So now I'm all set for 2026.
That crossover.... now I understand why people love widebanders driven straight and a simple tweeter with a very simple high pass filter.
There are more parts in that crossover than in the entire bill of materials for the rest of the speaker.
That's a Richland style crossover... you know... it's radioactive!
The kind of nightmarish crossover we dreamt about when we lived in the Tacoma Aroma.

Here is a list of the music segments used by each judge when they scored a speaker.

A nice bonus was to get a copy of the CD. Thank you!
I'm hoping the completed judging sheets were kept. I didn't get a chance to see mine. Only the final score.

Send a message to the OP: Dave R. He should be able to take pictures of your score sheets with his phone and email them to you. I would like a copy of that CD. It would be useful as I assume they adjusted the levels and selected a small 15 to 30 seconds of each track.
