Hello,

Pretty cute. 'Glad to see you finally cleaned up your listening room.

Run you cables direct to the diaphragm, not to those SILLY press-to-fit stock ALTEC 802 connectors. Wonder Solder them. Same for the 15 inch woofer, Wonder solder direct to the terminals holding the voice coil wires.

From your crossover, use doubled - up ( paralleled ) 12 AWG to each woofer's polarity. ( the green wires in the photo ) NO press-to-fit / mechanical connections to woofer. Cost effective wire choice : M22759/11 12. Make 'em Robert W. Fulton lengths - multiples, or divisors, 57 1/8th inches.

My blue wires are 14 AWG, doubled - up between all crossover components, and single runs, Fulton lengths, to each 802 polarity m22759/11 14.

Let me know please, what you hear, and HOW that sounds to you. Have FUN.

Jeff Medwin
