Dave,

What you and Paul are discussing is over my head but I do enjoy the puzzle. I went to the crossover calculators posted but they were for 2-way systems, shouldn't it be for 3-way systems? I found this one:

Do L1 and L2 represent the coils? Do they affect the capacitor values? It's too bad the calculator won't let you input the knowns to determine the unknowns.

What started out in my mind as a fairly simple DIY restoration has become an intriguing puzzle. Rather than replacing the caps with the same values why not use what the calculators suggest? Not knowing what the coils measure, yet, they may need to be replaced.
