RE: Altec 605b simple xover

that's the way Stan Ricker said he ran Altec Duplex with a small cap, it tends to EQ the top. IIRC, it was too bright for my tastes with ~2.2uF & I preferred an N1600 scheme. Stan said something about using several motor run caps in series to get the highpass cap - I think it was his belief that it was good sonically to have a "large plate area" in the capacitor. Maybe some of the horn guys will comment on that belief.
