I haven't taken the time to try and decipher the schematic. I'm guessing it is the same way the speaker is currently wired.Mystery Solved?
I was looking around the Great Plains Audio website and discovered this:NOTE 2 - When the original 24 ohm impedance is not required, use the diaphragm manufactured for the Altec Lansing 299-8A, Altec original part #25884 (8 ohms), or the diaphragm manufactured for the Altec Lansing 299-16A diaphragm, Altec original part #25885.
I had no idea speakers went above 16 ohms. When I first found the KBapps calculater I played around with it trying to get the cap values to come out to the numbers I had on the caps. If you make the tweeter = 16 ohms, mid horn = 26 ohms and woofer = 4 ohms you get a C2 value of 5.667265. It also shows L2 = 0.63662, so I might be able to reuse one of the original coils if I could verify the value.
